Sundown

Lyrics

I can see her lying back in her satin dress
 In a room where you do what you don't confess
 Sundown, you better take care
 If I find you been creeping 'round my back stairs
 Sundown, you better take care
 If I find you been creeping 'round my back stairs
 She's been looking 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 feeling better, when I'm feeling no pain
 Sometimes I think it's a shame
 When I get feeling better, when I'm feeling no pain
 ♪
 I can picture every move that a man could make
 Getting lost in her loving is your first mistake
 Sundown, you better take care
 If I find you been creeping 'round my back stairs
 Sometimes I think it's a sin
 When I feel like I'm winning, when I'm losing again
 ♪
 I can see her looking fast in her faded jeans
 She's a hard-loving woman, got me feeling mean
 Sometimes I think it's a shame
 When I get feeling better, when I'm feeling no pain
 Sundown, you better take care
 If I find you been creeping 'round my back stairs
 Sundown, you better take care
 If I find you been creeping 'round my back stairs
 Sometimes I think it's a sin
 When I feel like I'm winning, when I'm losing again
 
 I can see her lying back in her satin dress
 In a room where you do what you don't confess
 Sundown, you better take care
 If I find you been creeping 'round my back stairs
 Sundown, you better take care
 If I find you been creeping 'round my back stairs
 She's been looking 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 feeling better, when I'm feeling no pain
 Sometimes I think it's a shame
 When I get feeling better, when I'm feeling no pain
 ♪
 I can picture every move that a man could make
 Getting lost in her loving is your first mistake
 Sundown, you better take care
 If I find you been creeping 'round my back stairs
 Sometimes I think it's a sin
 When I feel like I'm winning, when I'm losing again
 ♪
 I can see her looking fast in her faded jeans
 She's a hard-loving woman, got me feeling mean
 Sometimes I think it's a shame
 When I get feeling better, when I'm feeling no pain
 Sundown, you better take care
 If I find you been creeping 'round my back stairs
 Sundown, you better take care
 If I find you been creeping 'round my back stairs
 Sometimes I think it's a sin
 When I feel like I'm winning, when I'm losing again
 
 I can see her lying back in her satin dress
 In a room where you do what you don't confess
 Sundown, you better take care
 If I find you been creeping 'round my back stairs
 Sundown, you better take care
 If I find you been creeping 'round my back stairs

 And she don't always say what she really means
 Sometimes I think it's a shame
 When I get feeling better, when I'm feeling no pain

 If I find you been creeping 'round my back stairs
 Sometimes I think it's a sin
 When I feel like I'm winning, when I'm losing again
