How Long How Long Songtext
von Blind Lemon Jefferson
How Long How Long Songtext
How long, how long, has that evenin′ train been gone?
For how long, ah, how long, baby, how long
Standin' at the station, watch my baby leave town
I feel disgusted, no peace can be found
For how long, ah, how long, baby, how long
I can hear the whistle blowing but I just can′t see no train
Way down in my heart, baby, there lie aches of pain
Oh, how long, ah, how long, baby, how long
Sometime I feel disgusted and I feel so blue
I hardly know what in this world, baby, a good man can do
For how long, ah, how long, baby, how long
If I could holler just like a mountain jack
I'd go up on the mountain, I'd call my baby back
For how long, ah, how long, baby, how long
Some day you′re gonna be sorry you ever done me wrong
It′ll be too late darlin', your man′ll be gone
For how long, ah, how long, baby, how long
My mind goes to wondering, I feel so sad
Thinking about the trouble a good man always had
Oh, how long, ah, how long, baby, how long
For how long, ah, how long, baby, how long
Standin' at the station, watch my baby leave town
I feel disgusted, no peace can be found
For how long, ah, how long, baby, how long
I can hear the whistle blowing but I just can′t see no train
Way down in my heart, baby, there lie aches of pain
Oh, how long, ah, how long, baby, how long
Sometime I feel disgusted and I feel so blue
I hardly know what in this world, baby, a good man can do
For how long, ah, how long, baby, how long
If I could holler just like a mountain jack
I'd go up on the mountain, I'd call my baby back
For how long, ah, how long, baby, how long
Some day you′re gonna be sorry you ever done me wrong
It′ll be too late darlin', your man′ll be gone
For how long, ah, how long, baby, how long
My mind goes to wondering, I feel so sad
Thinking about the trouble a good man always had
Oh, how long, ah, how long, baby, how long
