Sundowner

Hey man, where'd you get your tan?

Oh, I'd like to have that sun in me

See I like the sun, but I start to run

Oh, the moment that the sun runs from me

I am a sundowner

So live and leave

I am a sundowner

Don't let the sun go down on me

Hey Ma, where'd you find Pa?

Oh, I'd like to have some company

See I like a crowd but I don't know how

To keep one surrounding me

I am a sundowner

So live and leave

I am a sundowner

Don't let the sun run from me

Oh, I went to the market but the market was closed

Sign on the window said, "The hours devour us"

So I went to the river and it said, "Come here, let me whisper in your ear"

And it pulled me under

So I went to the Lord but the Lord said, "No, you're not welcome here anymore"

So I went to the sky but the sky was closed

Said, "I don't know where I'm gonna go

I am a wandering soul, through the back of what I know"

I am a sundowner

Please

Don't let the sun go down on me

Hey man, where'd you get your tan?

Oh, I'd like to have that sun in me

See I like the sun, but I start to run

Oh, the moment that the sun runs from me

I am a sundowner

Please

Don't let the sun go down on me
