Ten Thousand Miles
Is a long way from home

I'm a walking down the track
I've got tears in my eyes
Trying to find a place
To call my own

But the farther that you roam
The more you wish that you were home
When it's Ten Thousand Miles all alone
And you hate to hear that lonesome whistle blow
That long lonesome train whistling down

I've crossed the burning sands
I've sailed the seven seas
I've climbed the highest mountain
Made of stone

But the saddest blow by far
Is to find where you are
Your just ten thousand miles from your home
And you hate to hear that lonesome whistle blow
That long lonesome train whistling down

I've met farmers on the lands
Traded tales with factory hands
The people everywhere
I've met and known

But when all is said and done
People everywhere are one
And Your ten thousand miles from your home
And you hate to hear that lonesome whistle blow
That long lonesome train whistling down

If my woman waits for me
The my travelling days are done
For at last I'll have a place 
To call my home

But I had to search the whole world wide
To find my place was at her side
And that ten thousand miles from my home
Oh I'll never hear that lonesome whistle blow
That long lonesome train whistling down

Wait for me
Oh Wait for me
I'm coming home
To you
