《That Evening Sun》歌词

[00:03:43] The alley dogs are barking

[00:03:43] Chickens crowing down the lane

[00:03:43] And I feel just like that rooster

[00:03:43] And his mournful low refrain

[00:03:43] With the sundown on my shoulder

[00:03:43] Just a-hanging 'round the yard

[00:03:43] I'll be leaving here tomorrow

[00:03:43] Gonna catch an empty car

[00:03:43] There's a thousand constellations

[00:03:43] In that brilliant beaming sky

[00:03:43] But the earth is just one station

[00:03:43] On that lonesome starry line

[00:03:43] There's a distant whistle blowing

[00:03:43] Down a rusty stretch of track

[00:03:43] And I'm just an empty coal car

[00:03:43] On that train not coming back

[00:03:43] How I hate to see that evening sun go down

[00:03:43] When it's lonesome coming down my trail

[00:03:43] Well I know this train will take me where I'm bound

[00:03:43] But I hate to see that evening sun go down

[00:03:43] Oh the sidewalks have their streetlamps

[00:03:43] And the city has her glow

[00:03:43] And the poor boy has the moonlight

[00:03:43] Walking in his shadow

[00:03:43] But the nighttime can't be trusted

[00:03:43] To return the morning sun

[00:03:43] And my eyes have not adjusted

[00:03:43] To this blackface I've got on

[00:03:43] How I hate to see that evening sun go down

[00:03:43] When it's lonesome coming down my trail

[00:03:43] Well I know this train will take me where I'm bound

[00:03:43] But I hate to see that evening sun go down

[00:03:43] Don't the nighttime make you lonesome

[00:03:43] For that early morning sun

[00:03:43] For the light upon the engine

[00:03:43] Reaching towards the dawn

[00:03:43] You can spend your whole life racing

[00:03:43] Down rusty railroad lines

[00:03:43] But it's the setting sun you're chasing

[00:03:43] In that dark and rolling sky

[00:03:43] How I hate to see that evening sun go down

[00:03:43] When it's lonesome coming down my trail

[00:03:43] Well I know this train will take me where I'm bound

[00:03:43] But I hate to see that evening sun go down
