Like a bluebird with his heart removed Lonely as a train I've run just as far as I can run If I never see the good ol' days shining in the sun I'll be doin fine and then some
(Chorus) How long, how long, woman will you weep How long, how long, rock yourself to sleep
I've been doin time in a lonesome prison Where the sun don't shine Just outside the freedom river runs Out there in that shiny night With the bloodhounds on your mind Don't you know it's the same sad situation
(Chorus) How long,how long, woman will you weep How long, how long, rock yourself to sleep
Everybody feels alright, you know I heard some poor fool say, somebody! Everyone is out there on the loose Well I wish I lived in the land of fools And none knew my name What you get is not quite what you choose
Tell me how long, how long, woman will you weep How long, how long, rock yourself to sleep How long, how long Muddy river runs so deep How long, how long Good night baby rock yourself to sleep Sleep tight baby rock yourself to sleep B, b, b, bye, bye, baby rock yourself to sleep
