500 Miles Lyrics - Nick Cave & The Bad Seed

If you miss the train I'm on 

Then you know that I'll be 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 away from home 

500 miles, 500 miles, 500 miles, 500 miles, 

Lord I'm 500 miles away from home 

Not a shirt on my back, not a penny to my name 

Lord I can't go-a-home this-a-way 

This-a-way, this-a-way, this-a-way, this-a-way, 

Lord I can't go-a-home this-a-way
