There's a thoudand miles in back of me and many more to go
|
Ridin' on a freight train feeling mighty low
|
I keep a wonderin' why she quit me but I guess I'll never know
|
Yes she used to be my baby a thousand miles ago
|
A thousand miles ago I started feeling bad
|
Cause I just lost the future I thought I really had
|
I know I shouldn't feel this way cause I still love her so
|
And I can't keep from thinking about a thousand miles ago
|
[ guitar ]
|
I know I've held her in my arms a thousand times or more
|
Promised her a world of love till I learned the score
|
That's why I'm feeling lonesome that's why I'm feeling low
|
She used to be my baby a thousand miles ago
|
A thousand miles ago...
|
Yeah I can't keep from thinking about a thousand miles ago
|
