Songtexte Forty Days and Forty Nights - Buddy Guy

Forty days and forty nights since my baby done left this town
Sun shinin' all day long but the river keep runnin' dry
She's my life I need her so, why she left I just don't know
Forty days and forty nights since I sat right down and cried
Keeps rainin' all the time but the river keep runnin' dry
Lord help me, it just ain't right, I love this child with all my might
Forty days and forty nights since my baby broke my heart
Searchin' for her everywhere like a blind man in the dark
Love can make a poor man rich or break his heart, I don't know which
Forty days and forty nights like a ship out on the sea
Prayin' for her each night that she'd come back home to me
Life is love and love is light, I hope she come back home tonight
