500 Hundred Miles Away from Home - Springstreet
Composed by:Hedy West
Teardrops fell on mama's note when I read the things she wrote
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
But I'm five hundred miles away from home
Away from home away from home
Cold and tired and all alone
I'm five hundred miles away from home
I know this is the same road
That I took the day I left home
But no thing sure looks a lot different now
Course I guess I look different too
But you see time changes everything
I wonder what they'll think
When they see their boy looking this way
Yes I wonder what they'll say when I get home
I can't remember when I ate
It's just thumb and walk and wait
But 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
I'm five hundred miles away from home
Yes I'm five hundred miles away from home
