Lyrics for How Long?

Sally, things close early It's a holiday They tell me How long Have you lived here? Have you seen The river? Do you know the proper way To ask for a cigarette? I'm asking before winter comes Stay here with me 'til morning With the three-man orchestra playing I ask a fortune teller What they whisper when I walk by Do you know the proper way To ask for a cigarette? I'm asking before winter comes She said, "All the people run from the horizon"
