[Verse]
My honey left me, he's gone away
I've had the worried blues all day
My heart is achin' all for that man
What makes me love him I can't understand
He'll soon be returnin' and glad tidings he will bring
Then I'll throw my arms around him, then begin to sing

[Chorus]
Honey, where you been so long?
Honey, where you been so long?
Ever since the day
The day you went away
I've been cryin', felt like dyin'
I'm not ashamed to say
Never thought you'd treat me wrong
Look how you have dragged mе down
I have been almost insane
But I'm so glad to see you home again
Honеy, where you been so long?

[Chorus]
Never thought you would treat me wrong
Look how you have dragged me down
I have been almost insane
But dad, I'm so glad to see you home again
Honey, where you been so long?
