In the Evening by the Moonlight - Nina Simone
In the evening by the moonlight
When my mother had finished working
We used to sit around the fire place
Till the cornbread it was done
And then we all would eat our supper
After that we cleand the kitchen
It's the only time
They ever gave us to spare
To have a little fun
Then my daddy used to
Take his fiddle down
That hung upon the wall
While the silvery moon was shining
Clear and bright
How the old folks would enjoy it
They would sit all night and listen
As we used to sing in the evening
By the moonlight
In the evening by the moonlight
You could hear banjos ringing
You could hear them by the moonlight
You could hear my folks all singing
How my mother she would enjoy it
She would sit all night and listen
As we sang in the evening
By the moolight oh yeah
In the evening by the moonlight
You could hear folks all singing
In the evening by the moonlight
You could hear my folks all singing
How my mother she would enjoy it
She would sit all night and listen
As we sang in the evening
By the moolight oh yeah
In the evening by the moonlight
You could hear banjos ringing
In the evening by the moonlight
You could hear my folks all singing
How my mother she would enjoy it
She would sit all night and listen
As we sang in the evening
By the moolight yeah yeah alright
