In The Evening - Les McCann

In the evenin', in the evenin'

Mama when the sun go down

In the evenin', darlin'

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'

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 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

So 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 evenin', in the evenin'

I declare when the sun go down

When the sun go down
