Doomsday, someday
But not today so far
Said this world wouldn't be here much longer
But look around, here we are
Only God in His Wisdom
Surely not me in mine
Knows the number of the days of a man
Every day, He shows me a sign
There goes sundown
There goes sundown
There goes sundown again
Some days I pray this prayer more than others
For my Lord to come
When I'm weary of fightin'
Yeah, when I'm tired of runnin'
Other days I wanna stay around
And grow old with that girl of mine
Most of the future, it's out of my hands
He reminds me every day about this time
There goes sundown
Yeah, there goes sundown
There goes sundown again, ah, yeah
There goes sundown
Yeah, there goes sundown
There goes sundown again
I don't believe we've been forgotten
God's too faithful, He's too good
At keeping all His promises
He's gonna come for me
Just like He said He would
Ah, yeah, He said He would
Oh, look yonder
Yeah, there goes sundown
Yeah, there goes sundown
There goes sundown
There it goes again
There it goes again, yeah
There goes sundown
Yeah, there goes sundown
There goes sundown again
