When the Sun Goes Down aka: In the Evening by Leroy Carr Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, in the evening
In the evening
Mama, when the sun go down
In the evening
Baby, when the sun go down
Well – ain't it lonesome!
Ain't it lonesome, baby
When your lover's not around –
When the sun go down?

[Verse 2]
Last night, I laid a-sleeping
I was thinking to myself
Last night, I laid a-sleeping
I was thinking to myself
Well, what I'm thinkin'?
That how the one you love
Will mistreat you for someone else
When the sun goes down
[Verse 3]
The sun rises in the east
And it sets up in thе west
The sun rises in thе east, Mama!
And it sets in the west
Well, it's hard to tell
Hard to tell
Which one will treat you the best
When the sun goes down

[Bridge]
Yeah-ah!
Hee, hoo-wee!
Yeaah-ah!
Hee, hoo-woah!
Yeaah-hi!
Hoo, hoo-ee!

[Verse 4]
Goodbye old sweetheart and pals
Yes, I'm going away
But I may be back to see you again
Some old rainy day
Well, in the evening
In the evening, babe
When the sun goes down
When the sun goes down
