Lyrics

[00:01.78] I'm 500 miles away from home
[00:13.78] Tear drops fell on momma's note
[00:18.67] When I read the things she wrote
[00:23.13] She said we miss you son
[00:26.12] We love you come on home
[00:31.11] Well I didn't have to pack
[00:36.71] I had it all right on my back
[00:39.74] Now I'm 500 miles away from home
[00:47.89]
[00:49.34] Away from home away from home
[00:53.38] Cold and tired and all alone
[00:58.36] Yes, I'm 500 miles away from home
[01:04.85]
[01:10.71] (Spoken) I know this is the same road
[01:12.28] I took the day I left home
[01:13.59] But it sure looks different now
[01:16.44] And I guess I look different ,too
[01:19.85] Cause time changes everything
[01:23.35] I wonder what they'll say
[01:27.20] When they see their boy looking this bad
[01:30.03]
[01:32.42] Oh, I wonder what they'll say when I get home
[01:41.84] Can't remember when I ate
[01:46.11] It's just thumb, walk and wait
[01:50.65] And I'm still 500 miles away from home
[01:58.86] If my luck had been just right
[02:03.75] I'd be with them all tonight
[02:08.14] But I'm still 500 miles away from home
[02:15.90] Away from home away from home
[02:21.59] Cold and tired and all alone
[02:25.76] Yes, I'm 500 miles away from home
[02:32.44]
[02:34.37] Oh I'm still 500 miles away from home
