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 from my home

not a shirt on my back, not a penny to my name

Lord I can't go a-home this a-way

if you miss the train I'm on you will know that I am gone

you can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles

I told you so

time will say nothing but
I told you so,
time only knows the price
we have to pay;
if I could tell you
I would let you know

if we should weep when
clowns put on their show,
if we should stumble
when musicians play,
time will say nothing but
I told you so

there are no fortunes
to be told, although,
because I love you
more than I can say,
if I could tell you
I would let you know

the winds must come from
somewhere when they blow,
there must be reasons
why the leaves decay;
time will say nothing but
I told you so

perhaps the roses
really want to grow,
the vision seriously
intends to stay;
if I could tell you
I would let you know

suppose all the lions
get up and go,
and all the brooks
and soldiers run away;
will time say nothing but
I told you so?

if I could tell you
I would let you know
