How long
Babe how long
Has that evenin' train been gone
How long
How, how long
Baby how long
Went and asked at the station
Why's my baby leavin' town
You were disgusted
Nowhere could peace be found
For how long
How, how long
Baby how long
I can hear the whistle blow'n
But I cannot see no train
And it's deep down in my heart baby
There's lies an achin' pain
For how long
How, how long
Baby how long
Sometimes I feel so disgusted
And I feel so blue
That I hardly know what in this world
Baby just to do
For how long
How, how long
Baby how long
And if I could holler
Like I was a mountain jack
I'd go up on the mountain
And I'd call my baby back
But for how long
How, how long
Baby how long
And someday you gonna be sorry
That you done me wrong
But it will be too late baby
I will be gone
For so long
So long
Baby so long
My mind gets a ramblin'
I feel so bad
Thinkin' about the bad luck
That I have had
For how long
How, how long
Baby how long
