Long Time Going Lyrics by The Infamous Stringdusters

Rise Sun

2019

[Verse 1]
Fare-thee-well, my little darling
Where I'll end up, I just don't know
Hard times here, my little darling
So far away, I'm bound to go

[Chorus]
Traveling down the lonesome highway
Traveling down the lonesome road
Gonna be a long time going when I'm gone
Looking for a way to ease my trouble
Looking for a place where I belong
Gonna be a long time going when I'm gone

[Verse 2]
When the chilly wind starts blowing
And the snow lays on the ground
If that old tax man comes a-calling
He'll look for me, but I won't be found

[Chorus]
Traveling down the lonesome highway
Traveling down the lonesome road
Gonna be a long time going when I'm gone
Looking for a way to ease my trouble
Looking for a place where I belong
Gonna be a long time going when I'm gone

[Bridge]
Some of these days, I'll be contented
Yeah, one of these days, no more I'll roam
I'm gonna be blue should you forget me
If ever I make my way back home

[Chorus]
Traveling down the lonesome highway
Traveling down the lonesome road
Gonna be a long time going when I'm gone
Looking for a way to ease my trouble
Looking for a place where I belong
Gonna be a long time going when I'm gone
