Now don't the world look lonesome 

When the evenin' sun goes down? 

Now don't the world look lonesome 

When the evenin' sun goes down? 

Now it makes a man know one thing 

That they's on they last go round 

Now an the sun rise in the east 

An it goes down in the west 

Now an the sun rise in the east 

An it goes down in the west 

An it leaves me here thinkin' 

About the one I love best 

Now some of the people don't like me 

Don't even want me around 

Now some a the people don't like me 

Don't even want me around 

Ev'rytime I pay 'em a visit 

They wanna drive me out they town 

(guitar) 

'Boy, play that thing, play that thing' 

Now, it's gonna be one a these mornin's 

I'm gonna leave this lonesome place 

Now, it's gonna be one a these mornin's 

I'm gon' leave this lonesome place 

Because I'm here, baby 

I ain't got no place to stay.
