Why You Been Gone So Long |
Every time it rains Lord I run to my window |
All I do is just wring my hands and moan |
And listen to that thunder, Lord |
Can’t you hear that lonesome wind moan? |
Tell me baby now why you’ve been gone so long? |
Tell me baby now why you’ve been gone so long? |
You’ve been gone so long now |
Tell me baby now why you’ve been gone so long? |
A wolf is scratching at my door, Lord, Lord |
And I can hear that lonesome wind moan |
Tell me baby now why you’ve been gone so long? |
Somebody said they thought they saw you roaring down in Reno |
With a big ol' man from San Anton |
They tell me I’m a fool, fine for you but what do they know? |
Tell me baby now why you’ve been gone so long? |
Tell me baby now why you’ve been gone so long? |
You’ve been gone so long now |
Tell me baby now why you’ve been gone so long? |
A wolf is scratching at my door, Lord, Lord |
And I can hear that lonesome wind moan |
Tell me baby now why you’ve been gone so long? |
Ain’t nothin' I wanna do Lord, so I guess I could get stoned |
And let the past paint pictures in my head |
And kill a fifth of a thunderbird Lord and try to write a sad, sad song |
Tell me baby now why you’ve been gone so long? |
Tell me baby now why you’ve been gone so long? |
You’ve been gone so long now |
Tell me baby now why you’ve been gone so long? |
A wolf is scratching at my door, Lord, Lord |
And I can hear that lonesome wind moan |
Tell me baby now why you’ve been gone so long? |
Tell me baby now why you’ve been gone so long? |
