Every time it rains Lawd I run to my window all I do is ring my hands and moan
|
Listen to that thunder roll and I can hear that lonesome wind blow
|
Tell me baby why you been gone so long
|
Tell me baby why you been gone so long you been gone so long now
|
Tell me baby why you been gone so long
|
The wolf is scratching at my door and I can hear that lonesome wind moan
|
Tell me baby why you been gone so long
|
|
Someone said they thought they saw you roaring down in Reno
|
With a big oil man from San Antone
|
They tell me I'm a fool to pine for you but what do they know
|
Tell me baby why you been gone so long
|
Tell me baby why you been gone so long...
|
|
There ain't nothing I wanna do I guess I could get stoned
|
And let the past paint pictures on my head
|
Kill a fifth of Thunderbird and try to write a sad song
|
Tell me baby why you been gone so long
|
Tell me baby why you been gone so long...
|
Tell me baby why you been gone so long...
|
