Traditional
900 Miles / The Orphan
I’m walking down the track and I got tears in my eyes
Tryin’ to read a letter from my home
And if this train runs me right, I’ll be home tomorrow night
I am 900 miles from my home

I will pawn you my watch, I will pawn you my chain
Pawn you my gold diamond ring
If that train runs me right, I'll be home tomorrow night
I am 900 miles from my home

Lord this train I am on is 100 coaches long
Hear the whistle blow a million miles
If this train runs me right, I'll be home tomorrow night
I am 900 miles from my home
