Stood along this lonely track   Watching the trains speed along   Weep, oh willow weep   Let me hear your song   So that my soul can be filled with joy      My heart and I   So alone in the fright I bear, so I asked   "How long, how long will it take me to be your man again?"   Tell me Mama   "Oh How long, how long will it take me to be your man again?"      As I try my best not to sigh   I still feel the tears on my face   I'm hated by you, you're loved by me   Though I can't take it, I will try not to break it      My heart and I   So alone in the fright I bear, so I asked   "How long, how long will it take me to be your man again?"   Oh tell me now   "How long, how long will it take me to be your man again?"      As I try my best not to sigh   I still feel the tears on my face   I'm hated by you, you're loved by me   Though I can't take it, I will try not to break it      My heart and I   So alone in the fright I bear, so I asked   "How long, how long will it take me to be your man again?"   Tell me sister      How long will it take me, will it take me   Oh so alone in the fright I bear, so I asked   How long will it take me, will it take me to be your man again?"   Will it take me to be your man again
