Don't the evening sun look lonesome going down (Lonesome)
Don't the evening sun look lonesome going down
Got the weary blues I'm gazing all around

Oh tell that evening sun that she has gone (Lawd, lawd)
Oh tell that evening sun that she has gone
That pretty little girl done left me all alone

It's hard to get along with a lonesome fellow like me (Lawd, lawd)
It's hard to get along with a lonesome fellow like me
With all the love and flirt with every crazy little girl I see

Just give me the moon now and lovin' gal in my arms (Lawd, lawd)
Just give me the moon now and lovin' gal in my arms
I never get in trouble 'cause the Joe don't mean no harm

No room for a Rounder readied on the side (Lawd, lawd)
No room for a Rounder readied on the side
So I'm checkin' out start headin' out down the line

Don't you see those mountains lookin' so far away (Lawd, lawd)
Don't you see those mountains lookin' so far away
That's where I'll be when the sun goes down today
