Lyrics How Long - Dave Van Ronk

How long, how long
Has that evening train been gone?
How long, how long, babe, how long?

Heard the whistle blowin'
Couldn't see no train
Down in my heart
I felt an achin' pain
How long, how long, babe, how long?

If I could holler
Like a man can
I'd climb that mountain
Call my baby back
How long, how long, babe, how long?

Feel so disgustin'
I feel so blue
Don't know what in this world
I'm gonna do
How long, how long, babe, how long?

How long, how long
Has that evening train been gone?
How long, how long, babe, how long?
