How Long

Lyrics

Like a bluebird with its heart removed, as lonely as a train
 I've run just as far as I can run
 If I never see the good old days, shining in the sun
 I'll be doing fine, and then some
 How long, how long, woman will you weep
 How long, how long, rock yourself to sleep
 I've been doing time in a lonesome prison, where the sun don't shine
 Just outside the freedom river runs
 Out there in that shiny dark, bloodhounds on your mind
 Don't you know it's the same sad situation
 How long, how long, woman will you weep
 How long, how long, rock yourself to sleep
 Everybody feels alright, you know I heard some poor fool say
 (Somebody)
 Everyone is out there on the loose
 Well I wish I'd been in a land of fools, no-one knew my name
 What you get is not quite what you choose
 How long, how long, woman will you weep
 How long, how long, rock yourself to sleep
 How long, how long
 Muddy river run so deep
 How long, how long
 Goodnight baby, rock yourself
 Sweettalk baby, rock yourself
 B-b-b-bye-bye baby, rock yourself to sleep
