paroles de chanson How Long, How Long Blues Part 2 - Scrapper Blackwell , Leroy Carr

How long, baby how long?
Must I keep my watch in pawn?
How long, how long, baby how long

I'm going to the pawn shop
Put my watch in pawn
I don't want it to tell me
That you have been gone
For so long, so long, baby so long

I've had some tough luck lately
I got myself in jail
I sat and called you, baby
To come and go my bail
For how long, how long, baby how long

I'm going down to Georgia
And up to Tennessee
Don't look me over baby
That's the last you'll see of me
For so long, so long, baby so long

The last time I tried to love you
You were so very cold
I thought that I was standing
Holding the North Pole
For how long, how long, baby how long

I can look and see the green grass
Growing on that hill
But I can't see the greenback
On a dollar bill
For so long, so long, baby so long

I haven't any money
For a ticket on the train
But I would ride the rods baby
To be with you again
For long, how long, baby how long
