How Long Blues
PHIL OCHS
How Long? Baby how long,
Has that evenin' train been gone
How long? How long?
Baby how long?
I can see the green grass
Up on the hill
But I ain't see the green back
On a dollar bill.
And so long, so long.
Baby so long.
How long? How long?
Must I keep my clothes in pawn.
How long? How long?
Baby how long?
