I hate to see the sun sink low. Just for a cause you ought to know. For it's true love I can't forget. All of my sorrow, you'll soon regret. . You promised me love that was true.
I'm traveling down this lonesome road, oh, how I hate to go. The wind and storms are raging high and it's awful cold. My mind drifts back to you, sweetheart, and I love you so.
Summertime is past and gone and I'm on my way back home. To see the only one I ever loved. Now the moon is shining bright, it lights my pathway tonight.
Oh, my brother take this warning. Don't let ol' Satan hold your hand. You'd be lost in sin forever. You'd never reach the promised land. . The old crossroad now is waiting.
Oh, oh, oh, oh. Oh yeah. That's it man. Okay baby, yeah. Aha. Play it on. Aah, good song. Yeah.
