500 Miles

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 is not my own 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 A hundred tanks along the square One man stands and stops them there Someday soon the tide'll turn and I'll be free I'll be free, I'll be free I'll come home to my country Someday soon the tide'll turn and I'll be free If you missed 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 five hundred miles away from home... Lord I'm five hundred miles away from home... I'll be free, I'll be free I'll come home to my country Lord I'm five hundred miles away from home You can hear the whistle blow five hundred miles
