Sundown Blues

“I hate to see the sun go down
And feel the darkness rise,
It gives me the Sundown Blues
And brings those tears into my eyes.

“And so I go a walkin’ out,
My goal it fills my eyes,
I have my mission to fulfill,
It is my job, it is my will.”

And she cry:

Where is that man now?
Oh where can he be?
Where has that man gone now?
He’s gone and left me so alone-alee.

Oh my man get restless as a bird,
Come the sundown every day,
Like in spring at nesting time
And wanders every unknown way.

And She:

Oh she sit and cry her eyes out,
She got the sundown blues.
Oh she sit and cry her eyes out,
She got those sundown blues.

Oh she cry for her missing man,
She cry for him all day,
She don’t know where to look for him,
Though she look in every which old way.

And She Say:

Something’s got a hold of him
And calls him every sundown time,
He can’t resist, he has to heed the call,
Though it makes no reason or no rhyme.

Yes my man, she say, he got the sundown blues
What have I done to let him down?
I’m sure I do not have a clue,
But my man he got those sundown blues.

And she sit and cry her eyes out,
She got the sundown blues.
And she sit and cry her eyes out,
She got the sundown blues.

“I gotta go, I gotta go now,
The sky is in that sundown blue.
I gotta go, I gotta go now,
The sky is in that sundown blue.

“It fill me with melancholy blues,
It fill me with melancholy blues.
Every lonely day at sundown,
Every lonely day at sundown.

“I gotta go now, I gotta go now,
The sky is in that sundown blue.”

Yes she sit and she cry and she don’t know why
Her man has left her with the sundown blues.
