long time blues

sittin' by the window

waitin' for the dawn

waitin' for a girl a-long time gone

long time gone is a lonesome sound

long time blues is a hard way down

walkin' by the river

walkin' in the rain

down by the depot waitin' for the train

long time gone is the evening train

long time blues is an achin' pain

long time blues is an achin' pain

listen to the sparrow singin' their song

listen for a voice a long time gone

long time gone is a silent song

long time blues keep a-comin' on
