Lyrics

[Verse 1]
How long, baby, how long
Has that evening train been gone?
How long, how long
Baby, how long?
[Verse 2]
I can see the green grass up on the hill
But I ain't seen the green back on a dollar bill
In so long, so long
Baby, so long
[Verse 3]
How long, baby, how long
Must I keep my clothes in pawn
How long, how long
Baby, how long?
Written by: T-Bone Walker
