That Evening Sun |
The alley dogs are barking, chickens crowing down the lane |
I feel just like that rooster with his mournful low refrain |
With the sun down on my shoulders just a hanging around the yard |
I’ll be leaving here tomorrow, gonna catch an empty car |
There’s a thousand constellations in that brilliant beaming sky |
But the Earth is just one station on that lonesome starry line |
There’s a distant whistle blowing down a rusty stretch of track |
And I’m just an empty coal car on that train not coming back |
Well, I hate to see that evening sun go down |
When it’s lonesome coming down my trail |
And I know this train will take me where I’m bound |
But I hate to see that evening sun go down |
With the sidewalks and their street lamps city has her glow |
The poor boy has the moonlight walking in his shadow |
But the night time can’t be trusted to return the morning sun |
My eyes have not adjusted to this black face I’ve got on |
Well, I hate to see that evening sun go down |
When it’s lonesome coming down my trail |
Well, I know this train will take me where I’m bound |
Well, I hate to see that evening sun go down |
Know the night time makes you lonesome for that early morning sun |
For the light upon that engine reaching towards the dawn |
You can spend your whole life racing down rusty railroad lines |
It’s the setting sun you’re chasing in that dark and rolling sky |
Well, I hate to see that evening sun go down |
When it’s lonesome coming down my trail |
But I know this train will take me where I’m bound |
But I hate to see that evening sun go down |
Yes, I hate to see that evening sun go down |
