Won't Be Long

(j. l. mcfarland)



Baby, here i am

A-by the railroad track

Oh, waitin' for my baby

He's a-comin' back

A-comin' back to me

On 5:03, eah

And it won't be long, no, no

It won't a-be long



I get so lonesome

Since he's been gone

There ain't a thing worth mentioning

No, a-been goin' on

And that's a-why i know

When the whistle blows, yeah

And it won't be long, no, no

It won't be long



My daddy told me

When he said goodbye, yes he did

I'll be back, baby

Oh, baby, bye and bye

That's why i've waited

So doggone long, yeah

A-can't you see how happy i am

Because my man is a-comin' back?



So now here i'll be

A-by the railroad track

Oh, waitin' for my baby, yeah

He's a-comin' back

A-comin' back to me

On 5:03, hey

And it won't be long, no, no

It won't a-be long



I ain't had no lovin'

Since you know when

He's a lonesome old rooster

And i'm a lonesome hen

That's a-why i know, yeah

When the whistle blows, yeah

And it won't a-be long, no, no

It won't be long



Mmm, i'm so excited

My knees are shakin', yeah

Mr. engineer, oh, don't you keep me waitin'

Hear me tellin' you

Hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry



A-baby, here i am

Oh, by the railroad track, yeah

Waitin' for my baby

He's a-comin' back

A-comin' back to me

Lord, on 5:03, eah

And it won't be long, hey

And it won't be long



And that's why i know

When the whistle blows, yeah

It won't a-be long, no, no

It won't be long

I don't know about you

But i know when the whistle blows, eah

And it won't be long, no

It won't be long

Hey, it won't be long

Mr. engineer

Tell me it won't be long

It won't be long

All right

And it won't be long

A-here it comes now

And it won't be long

Comin' back to me

And it won't be long

Hurry
