500 Miles
By Peter, Paul, & Mary
If you miss the train I'm on
You will know that I'm 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
Lord I'm one
Lord I'm two
Lord I'm three
Lord I'm four
Lord I'm 500 miles from my home
500 miles
500 miles
500 miles
500 miles
Lord I'm five hundred miles from my home
Not a shirt on my back
Not a penny to my name
Lord I can't go a-home
This a-way
This a-way
This a-way
This a-way
This a-way
Lord I can't go a-home
This a-way
If you miss the train I'm on
You will know that I am gone
You can hear the whistle blow
A hundred miles
