i'm nine hundred miles from home - fiddlin' john carson lyrics
[verse 1]
lord, i’ll p-wn you my watch and i’ll p-wn you chain
p-wn you, my gold diamond ring
that don’t pay my little woman’s fine
p-wn you my wagon and my team
[chorus]
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
[verse 2]
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
[chorus]
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
[verse 3]
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
[chorus]
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
