Strum
D-DU-UDU
Like a blue bird with his heart removed, lonely as a train
Ive run just as far as I can run
If I never see the good old days shinin in the sun
Ill be doin fine and then some
How long, how long
Woman will you weep
How long, how long
Rock yourself to sleep
Well I been doin time in lonesome prison, where the sun dont shine
Just outside, the freedom river runs
Out there in that shiny night, with blood hounds on your mind
Dont you know its the same sad situation?
How long, how long
Woman will you weep
How long, how long
Rock yourself to sleep
(Joes instrumental)
Everybody feels alright you know, I heard some poor fool say (Somebody Ooooo)
Everyone is out there on the loose
Well I wish I lived in the land of fools, no one knew my name
But what you get is not quite what you choose
Tell me, how long, how long
Woman will you weep
How long, how long
Rock yourself to sleep
How long, how long (long and drawn out)
Muddy River runs so deep
How long, how long (long and drawn out)
Good night baby, rock yourself to sleep,
Sleep tight baby, rock yourself to sleep,
B-B-B Bye bye baby, Rock yourself to sleep
