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. 
Away from home, away from home, away from home, away from home, 
Lord I'm five hundred miles away from 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 way, this a way, this a way, this a way, 
Lord I can't go back home this a way. 
 
If you miss the train I'm on, you will know that I am gone.

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