[Verse 1]
In the evenin', in the evenin’
People, when the sun goes down
In the evenin'
People, when the sun goes down
Don't you feel mighty lonesome
When your lovin’ baby's out of town
When the sun goes down?

[Verse 2]
Ain't you lonesome, ain't you lonesome
People, when the sun goes down?
Ain't you lonesome
People, when the sun go down?
Don't your heart feel mighty empty
When your lovin' baby's not around
And the sun goes down?

[Verse 3]
If I could holler just like a mountain jack
Then I would go way up on the mountain
And I would call my baby back
In the evenin’, in the evenin’, in the evenin', in the evenin’
In the evenin' when the sun goes down
Do not you feel mighty lonesome
When your lovin' baby's not around
And then the sun goes down?
[Verse 1]
In the evenin’, in the evenin'
People, when the sun goes down
In the evenin'
People, when the sun goes down
People, when the sun goes down
