[Clara Lou]

Long time coming, I’d say.

[Josh Painter]

It’s been a long time comin’
It’s goin’ to be a Long Time Gone.
And it appears to be a long,
Appears to be a long,
Appears to be a long
Time, yes, a long, long, long,long time before she’s gone.

Look, look at any Fred thread.
Read, you must read what some people say.
You know there’s something that’s goin’ on around here,
The surely, surely, surely won’t stand the light of day.
And it appears to be a long,
Appears to be a long,
Appears to be a long
Time, yes, a long, long, long, long time before she’s gone.

Speak out, you got to speak out against the hateful,
You got to speak your mind,
If you dare.
But don’t no don’t now try to reason with them
If you do you had better bide your time.
`Cause it appears to be a long,
Appears to be a long,
Appears to be a long,
Time, such a long long long long time before she’s gone.

It’s been a long time comin’
It’s goin’ to be a long time gone.
But you know,
The darkest hour is always
Always just before they’re gone.
And it appears to be a long, appears to be a long,
Appears to be a long
Time before she’s gone.
