How Long How Long

Standing at the station : watch my baby leave town
I feel disgusted : no peace can be found
Now you can hear the whistles blowing : but I just can't see no train
Way down in my heart : got a lot of aches and pains
Sometime I feel disgusted : and I feel so blue
I hardly know what in this world baby : a good man can do
If I could holler : just like a mountain jack
I'd go up on the mountain : and call my baby back
Some day you're going to be sorry : you ever done me wrong
It'll be too late darling : your man will be gone
My mind goes to wondering : I feel so bad
Thinking about the trouble : a good man always have
