Sundown

Gordon Lightfoot



I can see her lyin'

back in her satin dress

in a room where ya do

what ya don't confess



Sundown ya better take care

if I find you been creepin'

'round my back stairs



(repeat)



She's been lookin' like a

queen in a sailor's dream

And she don't always say

what she really means



Sometimes I think it's a shame

when I get feelin' better

when I'm feelin' no pain



(repeat)



I can picture every move

that a man could make

Getting lost in her lovin'

is your first mistake



Sundown ya better take care

if I find you been creepin'

'round my back stairs

Sometimes I think it's a sin

when I feel like I'm winnin'

when I'm losin again



(instrumental)



I can see her lookin' fast

in her faded jeans

She's a hard lovin' woman

got me feelin' mean



Sometimes I think it's a shame

when I get feelin' better

when I'm feelin' no pain



Sundown ya better take care

if I find you been creepin'

'round my back stairs



(repeat)



Sometimes I think it's a sin

when I feel like I'm winnin'

when I'm losin' again
