I'm five hundred miles away from home. |
|
Teardrops fell on mama's note when I read the things she wrote |
|
She said, "We miss you son, we love you come on home." |
|
Well, I didn't have to pack, I had it all right on my back |
|
Now I'm five hundred miles away from home. |
|
. |
|
Away from home, away from home |
|
Cold and tired and all alone |
|
Yes, I'm five hundred miles |
|
Away from home. |
|
. |
|
I know this is the same road I took the day I left home |
|
But it sure looks different now |
|
Well, I guess I look different too cause time changes everything |
|
I wonder what they'll say when they see their boy looking this way |
|
Oh, I wonder what they'll say when I get home. |
|
. |
|
Can't remember when I ate it's just thumb and walk and wait |
|
And I'm still five hundred miles away from home |
|
If my luck had been just right I'd be with them all tonight |
|
But I'm still five hundred miles away from home. |
|
. |
|
Away from home, away from home |
|
Cold and tired and all alone |
|
Yes, I'm five hundred miles |
|
Away from home... |
