[Verse 1]
What a pleasant evening
Just rocking to and fro
It makes you wonder why a man has to roam
Working for a salary
Sure keep you on the go
Yes sir, it's nice to have a night to come home

[Verse 2]
This is mighty pleasant
Just rocking to and fro
The air is lazy, the wind's at ease
This is my kind of evening
And I'm feelin' lazy and feeling at ease
This is my kind of night

[Verse 3]
Haven't got a worry
I'm really doing fine
I even have a little salted away
Got the peace of knowing
This house and lot are mine
In my opinion, boy, you're doing okay

[Verse 4]
I could sit here rocking
Until the break of day
The trees are drowsing thе time away
This is my kind of evening
And I feel likе drowsing the hours away
This is my kind of night
[Verse 5]
The earth is humming a happy song
This is my kind of evening
And I feel like hummin' and singing a song
This is my kind of night
