I'm Nine Hundred Miles From Home |
Lord, I’ll pawn you my watch and I’ll pawn you chain |
Pawn you, my gold diamond ring |
That don’t pay my little woman’s fine |
Pawn you my wagon and my team |
You can count the days I’m gone on the train that I left on |
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles |
If that train runs right I’ll be home tomorrow night |
Lord, I’m nine hundred miles from my home |
I used to have a woman, she would walk and talk with me |
Now she’s just setting on some other rounder’s knee |
She’s done told him what she won’t tell me |
And I hate to hear that lonesome whistle blow |
You can count the days I’m gone on the train that I left on |
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles |
If that train runs right I’ll be home tomorrow night |
Lord, I’m nine hundred miles from my home |
I went down to the depot, Lord, not many days ago |
Got on the train and the train went a-flyin' |
I looked back behind and my baby was a-cryin' |
And he’s gone and left me alone |
You can count the days I’m gone on the train that I left on |
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles |
If that train runs right, she’ll see John tomorrow night |
Lord, I’m nine hundred mile away from my home |
