How Long Do I Have to Wait for You? - Sharon Jones/The Dap-Kings

How long do I have to wait for you honey

Before a girl like me can move on

Ooh baby tell me how long

Do I have to wait for you honey

Before I can say that you're gone

Every hour seems like a day

And every day is like a year

And every week is an eternity

Well I get lonely baby when you're not here

Ooh baby tell me how long

Do I have to wait for you honey

Before a girl like me can move on

Ooh baby tell me how long

Do I have to wait for you honey

Before I can say that you're gone

Won't you let me know yeah

I'm in an awful state baby

You said you loved me so

But I just don't know how long I can wait

How long do I have to wait for you honey

Before I can say that you're gone

(music)

I asked your mama I asked your papa

Your friends your preacher and your boss

No one knows where you're going to baby

Or if you're coming back to me

Or we're together or are we lost

Ooh baby tell me how long

Do I have to wait for you honey

Before a girl like me can move on

Ooh baby tell me how long

Do I have to wait for you honey

Before I can say that you're gone

Won't you let me know yeah

I'm in an awful state baby

You said you loved me so

But I just don't know how long I can wait

(music)

Ooh baby tell me how long

Do I have to wait for you honey

Before a girl like me can move on

Baby how long

Do I have to wait for you honey

Before I can say that you're gone ahh

How long do I have to wait for you honey

Before a girl like me can move on

Baby how long

Do I have to wait for you honey

Before I can say that you're gone yeah

How long baby tell me how long
