In The Evening By The Moonlight Lyrics - Nina Simone

Traditional 

In the evening by the moonlight 

When my mother had finished working 

We used to sit around the fire place 

Till the cornbread it was done 

And then we all would eat our supper 

After that we'd clean the kitchen 

It's the only time they ever gave us to spare 

To have a little fun 

Then my daddy used to take his fiddle down 

That hung upon the wall 

While the silvery moon was shining clear and bright 

How the folks would enjoy it 

They would sit all night and listen 

As we used to sing in the evening by the moonlight

In the evening by the moonlight 

You could hear banjos ringing 

You could hear them by the moonlight 

You could hear my folks all singing 

How my mother she would enjoy it 

She would sit all night and listen 

As we sang in the evening by the moolight oh yeah 

In the evening by the moonlight 

You could hear folks all singing 

In the evening by the moonlight 

You could hear my folks all singing 

How my mother she would enjoy it 

She would sit all night and listen 

As we sang in the evening by the moolight oh yeah
