Lyrics and translation Leroy Carr & Scrapper Blackwell - How Long, How Long Blues
How
long
babe
how
long
Combien
de
temps
mon
amour
combien
de
temps
Has
that
evenin'
train
been
gone?
Le
train
du
soir
est-il
parti
?
How
long,
how,
how
long,
baby
how
long?
Combien
de
temps,
combien,
combien
de
temps,
mon
amour
combien
de
temps
?
Went
and
asked
at
the
station:
'why's
my
baby
leavin'
town?'
Je
suis
allé
demander
à
la
gare
: "Pourquoi
mon
bébé
quitte
la
ville
?"
You
were
disgusted,
nowhere
could
peace
be
found
Tu
étais
dégoutée,
nulle
part
la
paix
ne
pouvait
se
trouver
For
how
long,
how,
how
long,
baby
how
long?
Combien
de
temps,
combien,
combien
de
temps,
mon
amour
combien
de
temps
?
I
can
hear
the
whistle
blow'n
but
I
cannot
see
no
train
J'entends
le
sifflet
souffler
mais
je
ne
vois
pas
de
train
And
it's
deep
down
in
my
heart
baby,
there's
lies
an
achin'
pain
Et
c'est
au
plus
profond
de
mon
cœur
mon
amour,
qu'il
y
a
des
mensonges
et
une
douleur
lancinante
For
how
long,
how,
how
long,
baby
how
long?
Combien
de
temps,
combien,
combien
de
temps,
mon
amour
combien
de
temps
?
Sometimes
I
feel
so
disgustin'
and
I
feel
so
blue
Parfois
je
me
sens
tellement
dégoutant
et
je
me
sens
tellement
bleu
That
I
hardly
know
what
in
this
world
baby
just
to
do
Que
je
ne
sais
presque
plus
quoi
faire
dans
ce
monde
mon
amour
For
how
long,
how,
how
long,
baby
how
long?
Combien
de
temps,
combien,
combien
de
temps,
mon
amour
combien
de
temps
?
And
if
I
could
holler,
like
I
was
a
mountain
train
Et
si
je
pouvais
crier,
comme
si
j'étais
un
train
de
montagne
I'd
go
up
on
the
mountain
and
I'd
call
my
baby
back
Je
monterais
sur
la
montagne
et
j'appellerais
mon
bébé
But
for
how
long,
how,
how
long,
baby
how
long?
Mais
combien
de
temps,
combien,
combien
de
temps,
mon
amour
combien
de
temps
?
And
someday
you
gonna
be
sorry
that
you
done
me
wrong
Et
un
jour
tu
vas
regretter
de
m'avoir
fait
du
mal
But
it
will
be
too
late,
I
will
be
gone
Mais
il
sera
trop
tard,
je
serai
parti
For
so
long,
so
long,
baby
so
long?
Depuis
si
longtemps,
si
longtemps,
mon
amour
si
longtemps
?
My
mind
gets
a
ramblin',
I
feel
so
bad
Mon
esprit
se
met
à
vagabonder,
je
me
sens
si
mal
Thinkin'
about
the
bad
luck
that
I
have
had
En
pensant
à
la
malchance
que
j'ai
eue
For
how
long,
how,
how
long,
baby
how
long?
Combien
de
temps,
combien,
combien
de
temps,
mon
amour
combien
de
temps
?
