How Long, How Long Blues

HOW LONG, BABE, HOW LONG
HAS THAT EVENIN’ TRAIN BEEN GONE?
HOW LONG, HOW-HOW LONG, BABY HOW LONG?

MAN SAID WE WAS IN FOR STORMY WEATHER,
BUT WE WAS ALL IN IT TOGETHER
HOW LONG, HOW LONG, BABY HOW LONG?

BEFORE THE RICH MEN MADE THIS MESS
YOU HAD A LITTLE - NOW YOU GOT LESS
HOW LONG, HOW LONG, BABY HOW LONG?

WHEN YOU GOT NO JOB AND YOU'RE ON THE STREET,
CALLS YOU A SCROUNGER - CALLS YOU A CHEAT.
HOW LONG, HOW LONG, BABY HOW LONG?

SAY THIS LAND IS YOURS, THIS LAND IS MINE,
WHY WE GOT TO WAIT IN LINE
FOR SO LONG, SO LONG, BABY SO LONG

HOW LONG, BABY, HOW LONG,
HAS THAT EVENIN' TRAIN BEEN GONE?
FOR HOW LONG, HOW-HOW LONG, BABY HOW LONG?
