中古年代 聊聊老歌、老人和老故事，留下一些人史的痕。 (若有侵或述不敬告知，除或予修正。)

294的鼓 240站台

常的一情，生活在下的年人若家境不怎，往往不甘於跟父兄的步，事熟悉的或低的工作，然後平淡安的其一生。有些就毅然的背井出外打拼，但多半是事，或只能混勉糊口，而即使感到痛苦，也羞於返回故里。首《500 Miles》即是述著的一子的心情。

首歌是改自美早期的民，後翻唱者，包含有京士三重唱 ( Kingston Trio )、拜 ( Joan Baez )等。但台歌友最熟悉的是Peter，Paul & Mary的版本 ( 1962 US #1 )，而我Bobby Bare的版本，他除了歌改，也加上了口白，其中旋律在第三段由GD，然後再回到G。然此版本在1963的村曲排行榜只得第10名，但Bobby Bare唱有那股的桑味，尤其在影音始他：首歌也是他人生故事的一段。

代得很快，今通及交通均便捷，在外的子，恐很可感受得到那不得志又思的苦楚了。




I'm five hundred miles away from home.
Teardrops fell on mama's note when I read the things she wrote
She said, "We miss you son, we love you come on home."
Well, I didn't have to pack, I had it all right on my back
Now I'm five hundred miles away from home.

Away from home, away from home
Cold and tired and all alone
Yes, I'm five hundred miles
Away from home.

I know this is the same road I took the day I left home
But it sure looks different now
Well, I guess I look different too cause time changes everything
I wonder what they'll say when they see their boy looking this way
Oh, I wonder what they'll say when I get home.

Can't remember when I ate it's just thumb and walk and wait
And I'm still five hundred miles away from home
If my luck had been just right I'd be with them all tonight
But I'm still five hundred miles away from home.

Away from home, away from home
Cold and tired and all alone
Yes, I'm five hundred miles
Away from home...
