Bobby Bare - 500 Miles Away From Home lyrics

I'm five hundred miles away from home. Teardrops fell on mama's note when I read the things she wrote She 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 Now I'm five hundred miles away from home. Away from home, away from home Cold and tired and all alone Yes, I'm five hundred miles Away from home. I know this is the same road I took the day I left home But it sure looks different now Well, I guess I look different too cause time changes everything I wonder what they'll say when they see their boy looking this way Oh, I wonder what they'll say when I get home. Can'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 home. Away from home, away from home Cold and tired and all alone Yes, I'm five hundred miles Away from home...
