In The Evenin'

In the evening

In the evening

Mama, when the sun go down

In the evening darling, I declare when the sun go down

Yeah, it's so lonesome, it's so lonesome,

I declare when the one you love is not around

When the sun go down

Last night I were layin' sleepin', and I declare I was sleepin' all by myself

Last night I were layin' sleepin' darling, and I declare I was sleepin' all by myself

Yeah, but the one, the one that I was really in love with,

I declare she was sleepin' someplace else

When the sun go down

Yeah, ooh ooh ooh wee

Yeah, ooh ooh ooh wee

Yes, the one that I was in love with,

I declare she was sleepin' someplace else

When the sun go down

The sun rises in the east, and I declare it sets way over in the west

Sun rises in the east darling, and I declare it sets way over in the west

Yes, it's so hard, it's so hard to tell, I declare which one that'll treat you the best

When the sun go down

Now goodbye, old sweethearts and pals, yes, I declare I'm goin' away

I may be back to see you again, little girl some old rainy day

Yes, in the evening in the evening, I declare when the sun go down

When the sun go down
