Why You Been Gone So Long Jessi Colter

[Verse 1]
Every time it rains
Lord, I run to my window
All I do is ring my hands and moan
The wolf is scratchin' at my door
And I can hear the lonesome wind moan

[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me, baby, why you been gone so long

[Chorus]
Tell me, baby, why you been gone so long, you been gone so long now
Tell me, baby, why you been gone so long
Well, the wolf, he scratches at my door
And I can hear the lonesome wind moan
Tell me, baby, why you been gone so long

[Verse 2]
Someone said they thought they saw you roarin' down in Reno
With a little girl from San Antone
They say I'm a fool to pine for you
Hey, but what do they know?

[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me, baby, why you been gone so long
