How long, how long, has that evenin' train been gone? |
|
How long, how long, baby how long |
|
Heard the whistle blowin', couldn't see the train |
|
Way down in my heart |
|
I had an achin' pain |
|
How long, how long, how long |
|
If I could holler like a mountain jack |
|
I'd go up on the mountain and call my baby back |
|
I went up on the mountain, looked as far as |
|
I could see |
|
The man had my woman and the blues had poor me |
|
I can see the green grass growin' on the hill |
|
But I ain't seen the green grass on a dollar bill |
|
I'm goin' down to |
|
Georgia, been up in |
|
TennesseeSo look me over baby, last you'll see of me |
|
The brook runs into the river, river runs into the sea |
|
If I don't run into my baby, a train is goin' to run into me |
