500 Miles Lyrics by Judee Sill

Dreams Come True

2005

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

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 back home this a-way
This a-away, this a-way, this a-way, this a-way
Lord I can't go back home this a-way

[Voice]
(Is there another verse we can throw in?)
[Judee]
(That's all I know.)
