[Verse 1]
In the evening, in the evening, baby, when the sun go down
Oh, in the evening, baby, when the sun go down
Whoa, ain't it lonesome, ain't it lonesome, mhm
When your lover is not around

[Verse 2]
Last night, as I lay sleeping
People, I was thinking to myself, mhm
I say last night as I lay sleeping, mhm
I want you to know I was thinking to myself, OW
Oh, ain't it hard, ain't hard sometimes
To love someone when they love somebody else?
Or when the sun go down

[Bridge]
Alright, Mr. Phillips
OW, what is she doing tonight?
Alright

[Outro]
Oh, in the evening, I say in the evening
Well now, baby, when the sun, when the sun
When the sun go down
Oh, in the evening now now, oh, in the evening, yeah
I said, baby, when the sun, when the sun
When the sun go down
Oh, ain't it lonesome, ain't it lonesome now
When your lover is not around?
The sun goes down
Alright
