Half A Million Miles From Home Lyrics - Albert Hammond

Sitting by a lonely Kansas road 

A car goes rushing by 

At the rate of one an hour 

Want a lift into the nearest town 

And judging by the sky 

We're heading for a shower 

Ooh, ooh, ooh... 

I'm a half a million miles from home 

Hey there, man 

Don't step upon the gas 

There's room enough inside 

And I'm very tired of walking 

I don't wanna do you any harm 

I just wanna get a ride 

And I'm very good at talking 

Ooh, ooh, ooh... 

I'm a half a million miles from home 

Now the telegraph begins to hum 

There's a message on the wire 

An electric conversation 

Well, ain't that life 

I'm saying to myself 

There's an awful lot of words 

But there's no communication 

Ooh, ooh, ooh... 

I'm a half a million miles from home 

Ooh, ooh, ooh... 

I'm a half a million miles from home 

Ooh, ooh, ooh... 

I'm a half a million miles from home
