Lyrics:

In the evenin', Mama, when the sun goes down
In the evenin', Mama, when the sun goes down
Ain't it so lonesome, ain't it so lonesome
When your love was not around when the sun goes down
Well, I lay awake at night
Well, I'm just thinkin' to myself
Oh, I lay awake at night
Oh, I'm just thinkin' to myself
Oh, don't it hurt so bad
When your love was lovin' someone else
When the sun goes down

When the sun rises in the east
When it sets down in the west
When the sun rises in the east, now, Mama
When it sets down in the west
Well, it's hard to tell, it's hard to tell
Which woman'll love you the best
When the sun goes down

When the sun goes down
When the sun goes down
When the sun goes down
Oh, when the sun goes down
When the sun goes down
When the sun goes down
When the sun goes down
