[Instrumental Intro]
[Chorus]
If you miss 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
[Verse 2]
Not a shirt on my back, not a penny to my name
And the land that I once loved was 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
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
A hundred tanks along the square
One man stands and stops them there
Some day soon, the tide will turn, and I'll be free
I'll be free, I'll be free, I'll come home to my country
Some day soon the tide will turn and I'll be free
[Chorus]
If you miss 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
[Outro]
I'll be free, I'll be free, I'll come home to my country
Lord I'm five hundred miles away from home
Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh, uh-uh-uh-uh-uh
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles
Lord I'm five hundred miles away from home
