Five Hundred Miles (2002 Remaster) [Mono] Lyrics

Tear drops fell on mama's note
When I read the things she wrote
She said, we miss you girl
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 homeAway from home, away from home
Cold and tired and all alone
Yes, I'm five hundred miles away from homeIt's hard to tell the state I'm in
Where I'm going, where I've been
But there's a dream I've been following so long
If mama knew the things I've done
She'd forgive them everyone
But I'm still five hundred miles away from homeAway from home, away from home
Cold and tired and all alone
Yes, I'm five hundred miles away from homeCan'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 homeAway from home, away from home
Cold and tired and all alone
Yes, I'm five hundred miles away from homeLord, I'm still five hundred miles away from home
