Won't Be Long
Eva Cassidy

Baby here I am by the railroad track

Waitin' for my baby, he's comin' back

Comin' back to me on the 503

Ooh and it won't be long, no it won't be long


I get so lonesome since my man's been gone

There ain't a thing worth mentioning

Nothin' goin' on and that's why I know when the whistle blows

That it won't be long, no 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

Can't you see how happy I am because my man is comin' home?


So now here I'll be by the railroad track

Oh, waitin' for my baby

He's comin' back, comin' back to me on the 503

Yeah, and it won't be long, no it won't be long


I ain't had no lovin' since you know when

He's a lone old rooster and I'm a lonesome hen

That's why I'm sure when the whistle blows

Ooh, that it won't be long, no it won't be long


I'm so excited my knees are shakin', yeah

Mr. Engineer don't you keep me waitin'

Hear me tellin' you hurry, hurry

Hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry


Baby, here I am on the railroad track

Ooh, waitin' for my baby, he's comin' back

Comin' back to me on the 503, yeah

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


I know, oh when the whistle blows, yeah

That it won't be long, no it won't be long

I know, oh when the whistle blows

That it won't be long, no it won't be long
