Now lately I've been wonderin' honey why you don't come home
At the end of the day when your work is through
So yesterday when the sun went down the moon rose on your trail
It just dawned on me what sundown does to you
It just dawned on me what sundown does to you
It puts a clear in your eyes somehow I could never do
You wanna lean on the jukebox sip on a cool one
And hang around a place where you just might find one
It dawned on me what sundown does to you
[ guitar - steel ]
Now honey you know sundown falls on everyone
When I say everyone well that includes me to
So tonight when that old moon comes out you can bet I'll be cut out too
It just dawned on me what sundown does to you
It just dawned on me
Well it dawned on me what sundown does to you
