If you missed the train I'm on 
You will know that I am gone 
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles 
hundred miles, a hundred miles, 
hundred miles, a hundred miles 
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles 
Not a shirt on my back 
Not a penny to my name 
And the land that I once loved is 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 
hundred tanks along the square 
One man stands and stops them there 
Someday soon the tide'll turn and I'll be free 
I'll be free, I'll be free  [bad word] home to my country 
Someday soon the tide'll turn and I'll be free 
If you missed 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...
I'll be free, I'll be free  [bad word] home to my country 
Lord I'm five hundred miles away from home 
You can hear the whistle blow five hundred miles
