J.D. Souther - How Long
Like a bluebird with his heart removed lonely as a train
I've run just as far as I can run
If I never see the good old days shining in the sun
I'll be doing fine and then some
But how long how long woman will you weep
How long how long, rock yourself to sleep
You've been doing time in a lonesome prison
Where the sun don't shine
Just outside a freedom river runs
Outside where it's shiny and night
With those bloodhounds on your mind
Don't you know it's the same sad situation
But how long how long woman will you weep
How long how long, rock yourself to sleep
Solo
Everybody seems all right you know I heard some poor fool say
Everyone is out there on the loose
I wished I lived in the land of fools
And no one knew my name
What you get is not quite what you choose
But how long how long woman will you weep
How long how long, rock yourself to sleep
How long how long, muddy river runs so deep
How long how long goodbye baby rock yourself to sleep
Sweet surrender, rock yourself to sleep
Bye bye baby, rock yourself to sleep
