Terry Callier 900 Miles
I am walkin' down this track
I've got tears in my eyes
I'm tryin' to read a letter from my home
An' if this train runs me right
I'll be home Saturday night
'Cause I'm nine hundred miles from my home
Lord I hate to hear
that lonesome whistle blow
This train I ride on
is a hundred coaches long
Well, you can hear her whistle blow
a million miles
An' if this train runs me right
I'll see my woman on saturday night
'Cause I'm nine hundred miles from my home
Lord I hate to hear
that lonesome whistle blow
I will pawn you my wagon
And I will pawn you my team
I will pawn you my watch and my chain
An' if this train runs me right
I'll be home Saturday night
'Cause I'm nine hundred miles from my home
Lord I hate to hear
that lonesome whistle blow
That long lonesome train whistlin' down
