Lyrics:

How long, baby how long
Now has that evening train been gone?
How long, how long, baby how long?

Now I can hear that train whistle blowin'
And I cannot see no train
Now deep down in my heart
Just like an aching pain
How long, how long, baby how long?

Alright

Now if I can holler
Just like a mountain jack
I'm gonna give up on these tall mountains
And call my baby back
How long, how long, baby how long?

Now I'm gonna sing this time, darlin'
Ain't gonna sing no more
Now my time roll around
I believe I got to go
How long, how long, baby how long?
