In the Evening - Memphis Slim

In the ev’nin'

Mama, when the sun goes down

In the ev’nin'

Mama, when the sun goes down

Well, ain’t it lonesome, ain’t it lonesome

the one you love she’s not around

when the sun go down

Sun rise in the East

and it goes down in the West

Sun rise in the East

and it goes down in the West

Well, it’s hard to tell, hard to tell

which one will treat you the best

when the sun go down

Last night I lay asleepin'

I was thinkin' on to myself

Last night I lay asleepin'

I was thinkin' on to myself

Well the girl I love mistreated me

She mistreated me for someone else

When the sun go down

Now good bye old sweethearts and pals

Yes, I’m goin' away

But I may be back to see you, girl

Some old rainy day

Well in the ev’nin', in the ev’nin',

Mama when the sun go down
