Sittin' by the window, waitin' for the dawn
Waitin' for a girl, a long time gone
Long time gone is a lonesome sound
Long time blues is a hard way down
Walkin' by the river, walkin' in the rain
Down by the depot waitin' for the train
Long time gone is the evening train
Long time blues is an achin' pain
Long time blues is an achin' pain
Listen to the sparrow singin' their song
Listen for a voice a long time gone
Long time gone is a silent song
Long time blues keep comin' on
Sittin' by the window, waitin' for the dawn
Waitin' for a girl, a long time gone
Long time gone is a lonesome sound
Long time blues is a hard way down
Long time blues is a hard way down
