In the evenin, in the evenin, Mama when the sun go down
In the evenin, darlin, I declare when the sun go down
Yeah, its so lonesome, its so lonesome, sometimes
I declare when the one you love is not around
When the sun go down
Last night, I were layin sleepin
I declare, I was sleepin all by myself
Last night, I were layin sleepin, darlin
And I declare it was all by myself
Yeah but the one that I was really in love with
I declare she was sleepin some place else
When the sun go down
Yeah, ooh
Yeah, ooh
And I just, suddenly I wanted baby
Everybody could have a good time before me
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, darlin
And I declare it sets way over in the west
Yes its so hard, its so hard to tell
I declare which one thatll treat you the best
When the sun go down
So goodbye, old sweethearts and pals
Yes I declare Im goin away
I may be back to see you again
Little girl some old rainy day
Yes in the evenin, in the evenin
I declare when the sun go down
When the sun go down
