ARLO GUTHRIE - WON'T BE LONG lyrics

rate me

words and music by Arlo Guthrie

Not so long ago I set out on this road

With my friends and my companions by my side

And I think of you wherever I do go

I'm a rambler, I ain't hard to satisfy.

CHORUS:

Won't be long till I am home again with you

Just a few more miles to go

Won't be long till I can get back on my own

Won't be long till I can spend my time with you

In the airport I'm standing in a line

Search my pockets, check me out and I'm alright

It's not hard but it ain't easy all the time

To be in some other town most every night

CHORUS

Oh, I miss the singing from porch banjo nights

And when friends come by to pass the time away

And when the winds that chill the Bershires in the night

Heading east through Massachusetts toward the bay.
