In The Evening Mama

(albüm: Belafonte Sings The Blues - 1959)

In the evening, in the evening mama
When the sun go down
In the evening, in the evening pretty mama
When the sun go down
Don't you feel mighty lonesome
In the evening when the sun go down

My little woman, my little woman
My little woman, well she done gone
My little woman, my pretty little baby
My pretty little baby, well she done gone
She done gone, she done gone
And I feel so lonesome
In the evening when the sun go down

Well if I could holler just like a mountain Jack
Then I would go 'way up on a mountaintop
And I would call, and I would call
And I would call my baby back
Oh, in the evening
It's so hard, it's so hard, I declare, in the evening
When the sun go down

In the evening, in the evening mama
Mama, when the sun go down
In the evening, in the evening, pretty mama
When the sun go down
Don't you feel mighty lonesome
Yes, I declare in the evening, when the sun go down
When the sun go down
