It won't be long Songtext
von Ricky Koole

Baby, here I am
By the railroad tracks
Waiting for my baby
Cause he′s coming back

Coming back to me
On the 503
And it won't be long
No, no, it won′t be long

I been so lonesome
Since the man has been gone
There ain't a thing worth mentioning
Nothing going on

And that's why I know
When the whistle blows
Yeah, that 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
Baby, bye and bye"

That′s why I waited
So doggone long, yeah
Can't you see how happy I am?
Because the man is coming home

Here I be
By the railroad track
Oh, waiting for my baby
Cause he′s coming back

Coming back to me
On the 503
Yeah, and it won't be long
No, no, it won′t be long

I ain't had no loving
Since you know when
He's a long gone rooster
And I′m a lonesome hen


And that′s why I'm sure
When the whistle blows
Yeah, that it won′t be long
No, no, it won't be long

I′m so excited
My knees are shaking, yeah
Mr. Engineer
Don't you keep me waiting

Hear me telling you
Hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry
Hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry

Baby, here I am
Oh, by the railroad tracks
Waiting for my baby
Cause he′s coming back

Coming back to me
On the 503
Yeah and it won't be long
No, it won't be long

And I, I, I, know
When the whistle blows
yeah that it won′t be long
No, no, it won′t be long

And I, I, I, know
When the whistle blows
yeah that it won't be long
No, no, it won′t be long

Said it won't be long
no, no, it won′t be long.
Said it won't be long
no, no, it won′t be long.
