Sundown
Lyricist:Gordon Lightfoot
Well I can see her lie back in her satin dress In a room where you do what you don't confess She was a high pocket, bubblin, movin in the oven and Turn potato, turn potato, B what's the deal
Sometimes I rhyme slow, sometimes I rhyme quick When it's time to get busy out the hat comes a trick So when the sun goes down, you better take care If I find you been creepin round my back stair
Sundown you'd better take care If I find you been creepin round my back stair
She's a queen, lookin mean, in a sailor's dream She gotta come clean, gotta say what she means She gotta fess up, you is it dress up, oh indeed And tell 'em how it is, babe bring 'em up to speed
Sometimes I rhyme slow, sometimes I rhyme quick When it's time to get busy out the hat comes a trick It's a shame when a game leaves you out the frame It's the lovable, the sin, that's losin in the rain
Sometimes I think it's a shame When I get feelin better when I'm feelin no pain
See I could picture every move that a man could make She took steps, she fell in love, and that's your first mistake You went home, got woed, but you shimmied up the wrong way And the sun's going down and I feel like it's my last day
Sundown you'd better take care If I find you been creepin round my back stair
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com And sometimes I think it's a sin When I feel like I'm winnin when I'm losin again
Yo yo, sometimes the sounds is just more reliable
She let her hair down, make a frown, sat across her florist At a big city at a clip my mind's on a trip Day by day the sunshine soakin in a warm bath in the sunlight sunlight
I can see her lie back in her satin dress In a room where you do what you don't confess Sundown, sundown, sundown I can picture every move a man could make Get lost, fell in love, that's your first mistake Sundown, sundown, sundown
Yeah she was looking fast in the faded jeans She's a hard lovin woman, gotta know what I mean She stepped up in the spot, she made the spot hot Give it away, give it away, yeah
And sometimes I think its a shame When I get feelin better when I'm feelin no pain
Sundown you'd better take care If I find you been creepin round my back stair
And sundown you'd better take care If I find you been creepin round Find you been creepin round my back stair And sometimes I think it's a sin (I'm losing again) When I feel like I'm winnin when I'm losin again I'm losing again
