500Miles由美国民谣歌手HedyWest创作，并于1961年率先发行在民歌三重唱Journeymen(旅行者)的同名专辑中。这里是由陈占美演奏的钢琴曲版本。
迄今为止，如果beatles的《yesterday》是被翻唱次数最多的独唱歌曲的话，这首《500miles》，则完全有可能是被翻唱次数最多的重唱歌曲。
最为出名的就是Peter，Paul&Mary（三重唱组合）和Thebrothersfour（四重唱组合）的演绎，他们和Joanbaez(代表作为那首著名的“donnadonna”)是美国60年代民歌运动的重要代表。他们歌曲的共同风格就是旋律优美，自然清新，同时又富有哲理，几十年来被人们传唱，经久不衰。
If you miss the train I'm on
You will know that I am gone
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles!
A hundred miles
A hundred miles
A hundred miles
A hundred miles
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles!
Lord, I'm one, Lord, I'm two
Lord, I'm three, Lord, I'm four
Lord, I'm five hundred miles away from home!
Away from home
Away from home
Away from home
Away from home
Lord, I'm five hundred miles away from home!
If my honey said so
I'd railroad no more
I'd sidetrack my engine and go home!
And go home
And go home
And go home
And go home
I'd sidetrack my engine and go home!
Not a shirt on my back
Not a penny to my name
Lord, I can't make a living this a-way!
This-a way
This-a way
This-a way
This-a way
Lord, I can't make a living this a-way!
Just as plain as I could tell her
She'd better come along and go with me!
Go with me
Go with me
Go with me
Go with me
She'd better come along and go with me!
My shoes are all worn
My clothes are all torn
Lord I can't go back home this a-way!
This-a way
This-a way
This-a way
This-a way
Lord I can't go back home this a-way!
I told my little letter
If this train runs me right
I'll be back tomorrow night
I'm coming down the line on number nine!
Number nine
Number nine
Number nine
Number nine
I'm coming down the line on number nine!
If you miss the train I'm on
You will know that I am gone
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles!
A hundred miles
A hundred miles
A hundred miles
A hundred miles
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles!
