How Long Blues

Long ol' train cruel engineer

They took my baby and left me here

And how long will I keep these lonesome blues

How long how long

Has an evening train been gone

How long how long baby how long

Mean ol' blues come down on me

They're all around me they're all I see

But how long will I keep these lonesome blues

How long how long

Has an evening train been gone

How long how long baby how long

Cruel engineer can't you see

I need my baby back with me

Then I'd be rid of these mean ol' lonesome blues

How long how long

Has an evening train been gone

How long how long baby how long
