In the Evening Lyrics

In the evening, When the day is done 

 I'm looking for a woman, but the girl don't come 

 So don't let her, Play you for a fool 

 She don't show no pity baby, she don't make no rules 

 

 [Chorus:] Oh, oh, I need your love, I need your love 

 Oh, I need your love, I just got to have 

 

 So don't you let her, Oh, get under your skin 

 It's only bad luck and trouble, From the day that you begin 

 I hear you crying in the darkness, Don't ask nobody's help 

 Ain't no pockets full of mercy baby, Cause you can only blame yourself 

 

 [Chorus]

 

 Oh it's simple, All the pain that you go through 

 You can turn away from fortune, fortune, Cause that's all that's left to you 

 It's lonely at the bottom, Man, it's dizzy at the top 

 But if you're standing in the middle, Ain't no way you're gonna stop 

 

 [Chorus]

 

 Oh whatever that your days may bring 

 No use hiding in a corner, Cause that won't change a thing 

 If you're dancing in the doldrums, One day soon, it's got to stop, it's got to stop 

 When you're the master of the off-chance, When you don't expect a lot 

 

 [Chorus]
