Watch that crow as he flies See my struggle in his eyes You don't want me, yes I know Five more miles for me to go There's two trains running, leave this town The sun comes up, I'm going down Keep saying I'm free but I just don't know Five more miles for me to go Five more miles for me to go ♪ I'm gonna tell you what On this road that's filled up with sorrow I'm gonna tell you what Ain't never enough Call me Joe Christmas, that's my name I got this river running through my veins That light in August, it sure do glow Five more miles for me to go I know this life, it sure is hard All I can do is play my cards Keep saying I'm free but I just don't know Five more miles for me to go Five more miles for me to go
