When everything around me seems to spend once or twice
 Days when I acted like a fool
 Days when I broke every rule
 Tell me How long?
 Are you wasting my time going mind to mind
 Tell me How long?
 Are you wasting my time going mind to mind  yeah
 Little Jack Horner sitting in the corner looks real sad
 When everything around him really makes him mad
 Days when he acted like a fool
 Days when he broke every rule...................

 tell me........

 Walking the street at a cool cool night
 Looking around it's all full of fright
 I never thought I could be so strong
 I'm shaking just like I've never seen the light....

 tell me How long!

 Look at us all standing on the shoulders
 of the Jolly Green Giant
 "Is that my son up there?" my mom said
 "Is that my grandson up there?" my grandmama said
 Yeah it's me mom taking my time
 Yeah it's me mom riding the ride
 Look at me now, I'm King Kong
 Look at me now, why don't you tell me,
 tell me How long
