"Long Time Gone (Dustbowl Version)" lyrics
(with T Bone Burnett)
(from "A Place At The Table" soundtrack)
Look out, Ma
Look out, Pa
Look at that horizon
Somethin's out there kickin' up dust
Oh, it's comin' fast
Look out, Sister
Look out, Brother
River's gonna be risin'
Somethin' we've been waiting for
Oh, it's here at last
It's been a long time comin'
It's been a long time gone
It's been a long time comin'
It's been a long time gone
Let's all sing
Let's all dance
Stomp our feet in that red clay
Come on out of those old brown fields
Watch 'em turn to gold
It's been a long time comin'
It's been a long time gone
It's been a long time comin'
It's been a long time gone
Look out, Pa
Look at that horizon
Somethin's out there kickin' up dust
Oh, it's comin' fast
Look out, Sister
Look out, Brother
River's gonna be risin'
Somethin' we've been waiting for
Oh, it's here at last
It's been a long time comin'
It's been a long time gone
It's been a long time comin'
It's been a long time gone
Let's all sing
Let's all dance
Stomp our feet in that red clay
Come on out of those old brown fields
Watch 'em turn to gold
It's been a long time comin'
It's been a long time gone
It's been a long time comin'
It's been a long time gone
