In the Evening

In the Evening - Big Bill Broonzy/Graeme Bell's Australian Jazz Band

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 laying sleeping

I declare I was sleeping all by myself

Last night I were laying sleeping darling

And I declare it was all by myself

Yeah but the one

One that I was really in love with

I declare she was sleeping some place else

When the sun go down

Yeah ooh ooh ooh wee

Yeah ooh ooh ooh wee

Yeah the one

That I was really in love with

I declare she was sleeping some place else

When the sun go down

Now 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

Which one that'll treat you the best

When the sun go down

So goodbye old sweethearts and pals

Yes I declare I'm going away

Yeah goodbye old sweethearts and pals

I declare I'm going away

Yeah I may be back to see you again

I declare some old rainy day

When the sun go down
