How Long

How long, how long
Has the evening train been gone?
Baby, won't you tell me how long?

I'm riding a railroad
I've headed out of town
The way things is, it don't look like I
I oughtta hang around

How long, how long
Has the evening train been gone?
Baby, won't you tell me how long?

How long, how long
Has the evening train been gone?
Baby, won't you tell me how long
Has the evening train been gone?
Baby, won't you tell me how long?

I'm riding a railroad
I got the blues all around my head
The way I wake up this morning
I shouldn't get out of bed

How long?
