How Long Blues Lyrics - Milt Jackson

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

It's been gone since that blood red sun went down 

Thought I heard a whistle and I think I see a train 

Deep in my heart there is an aching pain 

Said how long, how long, baby how long? 

Well look down them tracks and feeling so bad 

Lost the best woman that a poor man ever had 

How long, well how long baby, how long? 

Well how long baby, how long has that evening train been gone? 

It's been gone since that blood red sun went down
