Well it be late on in the evening and I'm out on the outskirts of town
|
Late on in the evening, I'm out on the outskirts of town
|
I chews me a seed and I watch that evening sun go down
|
|
You know all last night baby, I couldn't sleep the whole night long
|
I was up walkin' the floor baby, I couldn't sleep the whole night long
|
I was cryin' for you, I was cryin' for me, I'm the one that done you wrong
|
|
Yeah when it's late in the day baby, you're tired, you done had enough
|
Late in the day baby, you're tired, you done had enough
|
You know I'll be waitin' baby, dial my number, baby look me up
|
|
Child when you're old and gray, you're back is bent your walkin' with a cane
|
Oh when you're old and gray, you're back is bent your walkin' with a cane
|
You look back and remember and you know I was your true lovin man
|
|
You know my little boy a cryin', beggin' me daddy please don't go
|
I mean he huggin on my knee, beggin' me daddy please don't go
|
You see he to young to understand, why mommy don't kiss daddy no more
|
|
Well it be late on in the evening and I'm out on the outskirts of town
|
Late on in the evening, I'm out on the outskirts of town
|
I chews me a seed and I, watch that evening sun go down
|
