If you miss the train I'm on
You will know that I am gone
You can hear the whistle blow
A hundred miles

A hundred miles, a hundred miles
A hundred miles, a hundred miles
You can hear the whistle blow
A hundred miles

Not a shirt on my back
Not a penny to my name
And the land that I once curved
Is not my own

Lord, I'm one, Lord, I'm two
Lord, I'm three, Lord, I'm four
Lord, I'm five hundred miles
Away from home
Yea

A hundred tanks a longer square
A one man stands, stops in there
Someday soon the tide'll turn
And I'll be freed

Well I'll be free, I'll be free
I'll come home to my country
Someday soon the tide'll turn
And I'll be free

If you miss the train I'm on
You will know that I am gone
You can hear the whistle blow
A hundred miles

Lord, I'm one, Lord, I'm two
(Lord I'm two)
Lord, I'm three, Lord, I'm four
(Lord I'm four)
Lord, I'm five hundred miles
Away from home

Lord I'm five hundred miles away from home, yea
(Lord I'm five hundred miles)
(Lord I'm five)

Ohh ah oh

Oh I'll be free, I'll be free
I'll come home to my country
Lord I'm five hundred miles
Away from home

Ooh hoo hoo ooo hu hoo
Ooh hoo hoo ooo hu hu hoo
(Aa mmm)
You can hear the whistle blow
Five hundred miles

Ooo hoo hu hoo
Ooo ooo oo ooo
(Mmm mm mm)
Lord I'm five hundred miles
Away from home
