How Long - Eagles

Like a bluebird with his heart removed

Lonely as a train

I’ve run just as far as I can run

If I never see the good old days

Shinin' in the sun

I’ll be doin' fine and then some

How long, how long

Woman, will you weep?

How long, how long

Rock yourself to sleep

I’ve been doin' time in a lonesome prison

Where the sun don’t shine

And just outside the freedom river runs

Out there in that shiny night

With bloodhounds on your mind

Don’t you know it’s the same sad situation

How long, how long

Woman, will you weep?

How long, how long

Rock yourself to sleep

Everybody feels alright

You know, I heard some poor fool sing…

(Somebody oooh…)

Everyone is out there on the loose

Well, I wish I lived in the land of fools

Where no one knew my name

But what you get is not quite what you choose

Tell me, how long, how long

Woman, will you weep?

How long, how long

Rock yourself to sleep

How long, how long

Muddy river runs so deep

How long, how long

Goodnight baby, rock yourself to sleep

Sleep tight, baby, rock yourself to sleep

Bye, bye, bye, bye bye, baby, rock yourself to sleep
