Every time it rains, Lord,
All I do is bring my hands and bones
Listen to that thunder roar
And I can hear that lonesome wind blow
Tell me, why you been gone so long?
Tell me, baby, why you been gone so long?
You been gone so long now
Tell me, baby, why you been gone so long?
Oh, I'm scratching at my door
And I can hear that lonesome wind blow
why you been gone so long?
they saw you rollin' down in Reno
With a big ol' flaunt from San Antonio
They tell me I'm a fool to pine for you
But what to say, you know
Tell me, baby, why you been gone so long
Tell me, baby, why you been gone so long,
Tell me, baby, why you been gone so long
Walkin', scratchin' at my door
And I can hear that lonesome wind blow
Tell me, baby, why you been
Walked me scratching at my door
And I can hear that lonesome wind blow
Tell me baby why you didn't go on so
