I'm a Thousand Miles From Home (Joe Ely) Travelin' down this weary road Travelin' down this weary road Travelin' down this weary road A troubled min'd is a heavy load Travelin' down this weary road Hold my ticket in my hand Hold my ticket in my hand Hold my ticket in my hand Lookin for the Promised Land Hold my ticket in my hand I'm a thousand miles from home I'm a thousand miles from home I'm a thousand miles from home Georgia rain blows through my bones I'm a thousand miles from home Told my love my last good bye My very, very last good bye Told my love my last good bye Hang my head and the tears just cry Told my love my last good bye I'm a thousand miles from home I'm a thousand miles from home I'm a thousand miles from home Georgia rain blows through my bones I'm a thousand miles from home
