|
Like a blue bird with his heart removed |
|
|
I’ve run just as far as I can run |
|
If I never see the good old days |
|
|
I’ll 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 a lonesome prison |
|
where the sun don’t shine |
|
Just outside the freedom river runs |
|
Out there in that shiny night |
|
with blood hounds on your mind |
|
Don’t you know it’s the same sad situation? |
|
|
|
How long, how long - woman will you weep |
|
|
How long, how long - rock yourself to sleep |
|
|
|
|
|
Everybody feels alright you know |
|
I heard some poor fool say (Somebody Oooooh) |
|
Everyone is out there on the loose |
|
Well I wish I lived in the land of fools |
|
|
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 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Good night baby, rock yourself to sleep |
|
|
Sleep tight baby, rock yourself to sleep |
|
|
b-b-b bye bye baby, rock yourself to sleep |
|
