Odetta - 900 Miles lyrics

Walkin' down this railroad track I got tears in my eyes Tryin' to read a letter from my home If this train runs me right I'll be home tomorrow night I'm 900 miles from my home And I hate to hear that lonesome whistle blow Well this train I ride on Is a hundred coaches long Hear the whistle blow A hundred miles If this train runs me right I'll be home tomorrow night 'Cause I'm 900 miles from my home And I hate to hear that lonesome whistle blow Well I'll pawn you my watch Pawn you my chain Pawn you my gold and diamond ring If this train roll me right I'll be home tomorrow night 'Cause I'm 900 miles from my home Lord I hate to hear that lonesome whistle blow I'm walkin' down this railroad track I got tears in my eyes Tryin' to read a letter from my home If this train run me right I'll be home tomorrow night As I'm 900 miles from my home I hate to hear that lonesome whistle blow Yes I hate to hear That lonesome whistle blow
