Lyrics:
And all I remember is your back
Walking towards the airport, leaving us all in your past
I traveled fifteen hundred miles to see you
Begged you
out on O'Rien's belt
the moonlight danced out on the water's edge
we started a walk that hasn't ended yet
and...
step by step
and...
mile by mile
If I go a million miles away
I'd write a letter each and every day
'Cause honey, nothin',
Nothin' can ever change this love
I have for you
Ooh, make
a mile from Tucson
By the morning light
One man gone and another to go
My old buddy you're moving much too slow
We can share the women, we can share
you know me? I'm your native son
I'm the train they call the city of New Orleans
And I'll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done
Dealin'
miles apart
FRANK:
There's nothing like walking and having a heart-to-heart
BOTH:
I know a girl who declined
Couldn't make up her mind
FRANK:
She
turning around
The hills roll out like centuries
Pass by without a sound
Just a mile outside of town
on the throttle
A scalded to death by the steam
It's a mighty rough road from Lynchburg to Danville
With a line on a three mile grade
It was on this grade
now?
When I'm down and out
In my time of trial
Will you stand by me?
Would you go away to another land?
Walk a thousand miles through the burning
dobro ]
It's a mighty rough road from Lynchburg to Danville
and a line on a three mile grade
It's on that grade that he lost his airbrakes you see what
take me away piece by piece
Gonna leave everything i know gonna head to the galaxy
Gonna leave this planet man, gonna head to the galaxy
Get miles
a mile from Tucson
By the morning light
One man gone and another to go
My old buddy you're moving much too slow
We can share the women, we can share
Frisco's a mile long away
You can afford to fly
But it might as well be the moon,
Lord, when you're as broke as I.
Here I sit with my head in
my all
Kind woman, nothing more
Little drops of rain whisper of the pain
Tears of loves lost in the days gone by
My love is strong, with you
I left the four lane highway took a blacktop seven miles
Down by the old country school I went to as a child
Two miles down a gravel road I could
Keep moving on [x3]
Time's gonna keep on passing
These moments are gonna stop lasting
I don't know why I'm counting
The seconds go by
I don't need
I'm coming home
Hanging by a rope
Hanging by a thread
And I got nowhere to go
Nowhere to go
A million miles away - I'm coming home
A million miles away
Down in Louisiana bayous by and by
Perogue pole or your natural soul
Keeps you tied to a tree high tide
Beer joint lights come on
And then
Right here she says don't forget her
Although we're miles apart.
She closes out by saying,
'I think I'll go to bed,
So I'll kiss this letter, darling,
Beautiful Delilah, sweet as apple pie
Always gets a second look from fellas passin' by
Every time you see her she's with a different guy
Beautiful
It's so nice to meet an old friend and pass the time of day
And talk about the home town a million miles away
Is the ice still in the river?
Are
you know me? I'm your native son
I'm the train they call the city of New Orleans
And I'll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done
Dealin'
will
We took time by the horns
Cryin' out loud
Stood there naked up there in front of the crowd
Been a million miles
On a lost highway
They might
looking for me then
I don't need to live by your rules, you don't control me
Until you've walked a mile in my shoes, you don't know me
And I know, I
