How Long

Baby, how long
 Baby how long
 Have that ev'nin train been gone
 Baby, how long, how long, baby how long
 Hear it was so
 Can't see no train
 But deep in my heart I feel and achin' pain
 And that's a-how long, how long, babe how long
 Into the station
 Look up at the board
 Next train around
 Strawberry Road
 How long, how, woo, baby how long
 'make it wail ev'rybody' 'yeah, so sweet'
 Down atta station
 With my head hung down
 Lookin' at my sugar, when she leave this town
 Baby, how long, how long, baby how long
 I ain't got no money
 Buy a ticket on a train
 But I'll ride de blinds, baby
 Be back home, again
 Well, how long, how long, baby how long
 See me comin'
 Gon get some plow work
 *I'll cut your liver
 Plug your heartache
 Been so long, woo swoo, baby how long
 'Sonny, wail about it'
 Feelin' bad, I'm lookin' sad
 Thinkin' bout the bad luck, Sonny
 I once have had
 But how long, how long, honey how long
 See the green grass, growin' on a hill
 Never seen no green grass on a dollar bill
 How long, how long, baby how long
 Lower you, baby
 To a hollow tree
 Way you treat me
 Come back to you
 Hoo, low, hoo, woo, baby gone
 'Make it wail ev'rybody, now'
 Feel so disgusted, I feel so blue
 Sometimes Sonny, I don't know
 What in the world I'm gonna do
 Now, how long, how long, yeah how long
 See that little house, sitting on the hill
 You don't love me, goin try another who will
 How long, how long baby, how long
 See my baby, tell her I'll be runnin' home
 I've been worried, ever since she been gone
 How long, how, woo, baby how long
 'Love to see ya'
 'Play for me, now'
