900 Miles Lyrics by Terry Callier

The New Folk Sound of Terry Callier

0

I'm just walkin' down that track
I've got tears in my eyes
Tryin' to read this letter from my home
Now if this train run me right
I'll be home tomorrow night
'Cause I'm nine hundred miles from my home
And I hate to hear that lonesome whistle blow
Now this here train that I'm on
Nine coaches long
Hear that whistle blowin' many a mile
Yeah, and if'n this train runs me right
I'll be home tomorrow night
I'm nine hundred miles from my home
Hate to hear that lonesome whistle blow
Now, I'll pawn you my watch
I'll pawn you my chain
Pawn you my diamond golden ring
Yeah, and if this train runs me right
I'll be home tomorrow night
I'm nine hundred miles from my home
Hate to hear that lonesome whistle blow
Now if my woman tells me so
Then I can't railroad no more
I'll sidetrack my engine, go on home
Yeah, and if this train runs me right
I'll be home tomorrow night
I'm nine hundred miles from my home
Hate to hear that lonesome whistle blow
Now I'm just walkin' down that track
I got tears in my eyes
Tryin' to read this letter from my home
Yeah and if this train runs me right
I'll be home tomorrow night
I'm nine hundred miles from my home
Hate to hear that lonesome whistle blow
And I hate to hear that lonesome whistle blow
