(Lord, I'm 500 miles away from home)
If you missed 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 loved was not my own
Lord, I'm one, Lord, I'm two
Lord, I'm three, Lord, I'm four
Lord, I'm 500 miles away from home
(If you missed the train I'm on)
(You will know that, know that I am)
(Hear the whistle blow a hundred miles)
(If you missed the train I'm on)
(You will know that I am gone)
(Lord, I'm 500 miles away from home)
A hundred tanks along the square
One man stands and stops them there
Some day soon, the tide will turn
And I'll be free
I'll be free, I'll be free
I'll come home to my country
Some day soon, the tide will 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 three, Lord, I'm four
Lord, I'm 500 miles away from home
(If you missed the train I'm on)
(You will know that I am, know that I am)
(Hear the whistle blow a hundred miles)
(If you missed the train I'm on)
(You will know that I am gone)
(Lord, I'm 500 miles away from home)
(If you missed the train I'm on)
(You will know that I am, know that I am)
(Hear the whistle blow a hundred miles)
(If you missed the train I'm on)
(You will know that I am gone)
(Lord, I'm 500 miles away from home)
