How Long Blues Lyrics


Standin' at the station when the train come by
Deep down in my heart, baby, feel an achin' pain
How long, oh, baby, how long?
Baby, how long, baby, how long
Has that evenin' train been gone?
How long, oh, baby, how long?If I could holler like a mountain jack
I'd go up on the mountain, call my baby back
How long, oh, baby, how long?I could see the green grass
Growin' up on the hill
But you can't see a green-black drawin' on a
On a dollar bill
Baby, how long?
Baby, how long?How long, baby, how long
Has that evenin' train been gone?
Baby, how long, oh baby, how long?
Baby, how long, oh baby, how long?

John Lee Hooker (Coahoma County, Mississippi, August 22, 1917 – Los Altos, California, June 21, 2001) was a highly influential American blues singer, guitarist and songwriter. John Lee Hooker could be said to embody his own unique genre of the blues, often incorporating the boogie-woogie piano style and a driving rhythm into his masterful and idiosyncratic blues guitar and singing. His best known songs include "Boogie Chillen" (1948) and "Boom Boom" (1962).
