"500 Miles" (also known as "500 Miles Away from Home" or "Railroaders' Lament") is a song made popular in the United States and Europe during the 1960s folk revival. The simple repetitive lyrics offer a lament by a traveller who is far from home, out of money and too ashamed to return.

2019年，Orla Fallon重新演绎并收录进她的新专辑《Sweet by and by》- Americana songs of inspiration and hope. Orla的演唱，少了些离乡背井的悲伤，多了一点希望和抚慰。
"The album begins on a plaintive pace with the 1960s folk revivalist's "500 Miles," a song about a forlorn soldier out of money and ashamed to return home. Fallon brilliantly acts as a foil of comfort for this dispirited soldier with her careful phrasing and her gentle tone.“

Lyrics If you missed the train I'm onYou 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 away 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
Not a penny to my name
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 this a-way
If you missed 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
A hundred miles,
A hundred miles,
A hundred miles,
A hundred miles,
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles
