Tony Rice - Why You Been Gone So Long lyrics

Every time it rains Lord I run to my window All I do is just wring my hands and moan And listen to that thunder, Lord Can't you hear that lonesome wind moan? Tell me baby now why you've been gone so long? Tell me baby now why you've been gone so long? You've been gone so long now Tell me baby now why you've been gone so long? A wolf is scratching at my door, Lord, Lord And I can hear that lonesome wind moan Tell me baby now why you've been gone so long? Somebody said they thought they saw you roaring down in Reno With a big ol' man from San Anton They tell me I'm a fool, fine for you but what do they know? Tell me baby now why you've been gone so long? Tell me baby now why you've been gone so long? You've been gone so long now Tell me baby now why you've been gone so long? A wolf is scratching at my door, Lord, Lord And I can hear that lonesome wind moan Tell me baby now why you've been gone so long? Ain't nothin' I wanna do Lord, so I guess I could get stoned And let the past paint pictures in my head And k** a fifth of a thunderbird Lord and try to write a sad, sad song Tell me baby now why you've been gone so long? Tell me baby now why you've been gone so long? You've been gone so long now Tell me baby now why you've been gone so long? A wolf is scratching at my door, Lord, Lord And I can hear that lonesome wind moan Tell me baby now why you've been gone so long? Tell me baby now why you've been gone so long?
