离家五百里 Five Hundred Miles

 四兄弟(The Brothers Four)是美国60年代著名的合声四重唱演唱组，他们演绎的民谣舒缓、清新，纯净如山溪，温柔若春水。他们的歌曲很受青年男女尤其是大学生们的喜爱。

    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 a way from home.
    Away from home, away from home,
    away from home, away from home,
    Lord, I'm five hundred miles away from home

    Not a shirt on my back, *(1)
    Not a penny to my name. *(2)
    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.

    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.
