c.w. stoneking - how long lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
my friends
how do you do?
want you listen here a minute while i sing my blues
nineteen hundred, seventy four
a river o’ blood laid me out upon this sh0r-
i don’t know, why i’m here
born with a crack o’ thunder ringin’ in my ears
my heart started to jump an’ i began to shout
stuck here wonderin’ what it all about..

[chorus]
how long (how long)
well, well
how long (how long)
to that, home (how long)
oooh
tell me how long that road

[verse 2]
all thing unknown where i must tread
all thing, but the certainty that is my dread
many say it ain’ no heavenly home nowhere
up above our heads it just a hole in the air
i looked to the east, looked to the west
a heart beat sorrowful through my breast
child cryin’ “daddy, what’s wrong with you?”
can’t be satisfied matter what i do

[chorus]
how long (how long)
well, well
how long (how long)
to that, home (how long)
oooh
tell me how long that road

yeah!

though trouble have dogged an’ driven me crawlin’
i cleave, i cling, one old, un-dyin’ soul
lord know i’m holdin’ strong as i can hold
i’m goin’ right to that home
how long my friend, i travail
a lion’s den, a belly of a whale
how long a pilgrim, in this land
death, sin, and the politic’ o’ man

[chorus]
how long (how long)
well, well
how long (how long)
to that, home (how long)
oooh
tell me how long that road
