"What Sundown Does To You" lyrics

What Sundown Does To You

Now lately, I've been wondering, 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 gleam in your eye
That somehow I could never do
You wanna lean on a jukebox
Sip on a cool one
Hang around a place
Where you just might find one
It dawned on me
What sundown does to you

Now honey, you know sundown
Falls on everyone
When I say everyone
Well, that includes me too
So tonight when that old moon comes out
You can bet I'll be out too
It just dawned on me
What sundown does to you

It just dawned on me
What sundown does to you
It puts a gleam in your eye
That somehow I could never do
You wanna lean on a jukebox
Sip on a cool one
Hang around a place
Where you just might find one
It dawned on me
What sundown does to you

Well, it dawned on me
What sundown does to you
