- How Long Lyricshow long, how long baby
how long has it been
how long you gonna keep me wondering
how long before you see
stallin' me was wrong - how long
how long, how long you gonna keep
slappin' my hands away
how long you gonna keep my love at bay
how long before you're sure
my love is strong - how long
how long, how long you gonna keep
tellin' me you like me fine
how long until I'm gonna make you mine
how long before you wake up
and find a good man gone - how long
how long has it been
how long you gonna keep me wondering
how long before you see
stallin' me was wrong - how long
how long, how long you gonna keep
slappin' my hands away
how long you gonna keep my love at bay
my love is strong - how long
how long, how long you gonna keep
tellin' me you like me fine
how long until I'm gonna make you mine
how long before you wake up
and find a good man gone - how long
