[00:00.941] Lord I'm five hundred miles away from home
[00:14.090] Teardrops fell on mama's note when I read the things she wrote
[00:23.285] She said we miss you son we love you come on home
[00:31.797] Well I didn't have to pack I had it all right on my back
[00:40.712] Now I'm five hundred miles away from home
[00:47.192]
[00:49.455] Away from home away from home cold and tired and all alone
[00:58.344] Yes I'm five hundred miles away from home
[01:05.023]
[01:10.377] I know this is the same road I took the day I left home
[01:16.067] But it sure looks different now
[01:18.465] Well I guess I look different too cause time changes everything
[01:26.148] I wonder what they'll say when they see their boy looking this way
[01:31.358]
[01:33.566] Oh I wonder what they'll say when I get home
[01:42.402] Can't remember when I ate it's just thumb and walk and wait
[01:51.341] And I'm still five hundred miles away from home
[01:59.811] If my luck had been just right I'd be with them all tonight
[02:08.935] But I'm still five hundred miles away from home
[02:14.867]
[02:17.061] Away from home away from home cold and tired and all alone
[02:25.759] Yes I'm five hundred miles away from home
[02:34.412] Lord I'm still five hundred miles away from home
