Jessi Colter Why You Been Gone So Long
Every time it rains Lord I run to my window
All I do is ring my hands and moan
The wolf is scratchin' at my door and I can hear the
lonesome wind moan
Tell me baby why you been gone so long
CHORUS:
Tell me baby why you been gone so long you been gone so
long now
Tell me baby why you been gone so long
Well the wolf he scratches at my door and I can hear
the lonesome wind moan
Tell me baby why you been gone so long
Someone said they thought they saw you roarin' down in
Reno
With a little girl from San Antone
They say I'm a fool to pine for you hey but what do
they know
Tell me baby why you been gone so long
CHORUS
Nothin' I wanna do oh I guess I could get stoned
And let that past paint pictures on my head
I could kill a fifth of Thunderbird, write myself a sad
song
Tell me baby why you been gone so long
CHORUS
Tell me baby why you been gone so long
