This classic tune spins a tale of a complex love-hate relationship. The protagonist is drawn to a woman who is both seductive and elusive, creating a sense of intrigue but also frustration. His conflicting feelings are reflected in the lyrics, as he finds himself feeling better when he's in pain and feeling like he's winning when he's losing. The repeated warning "Sundown, you'd better take care" could be directed towards either the woman or himself, suggesting an impending danger or betrayal. It's clear that this relationship brings more turmoil than peace, yet he can't seem to resist her charm. This song beautifully captures the paradoxes often found in love and relationships. #LoveTroubles #ComplexEmotions
Sundown
Lyrics
I can see her lyin' back in her satin dress
In a room where you do what you don't confess
Sundown, you'd better take care
If I find you've been creepin' 'round my back stairs
Sundown, you'd better take care
If I find you've been creepin' 'round my back stairs
She's been lookin' like a queen in a sailor's dream
And she don't always say what she really means
Sometimes I think it's a shame
When I get feelin' better when I'm feelin' no pain
Sometimes I think it's a shame
When I get feelin' better when I'm feelin' no pain
I can picture every move that a man could make
Getting lost in her lovin' is your first mistake
Sundown, you'd better take care
If I find you've been creepin' 'round my back stairs
Sometimes I think it's a sin
When I feel like I'm winnin' when I'm losin' again
I can see her lookin' fast in her faded jeans
She's a hard lovin' woman, got me feelin' mean
Sometimes I think it's a shame
When I get feelin' better when I'm feelin' no pain
Sundown, you'd better take care
If I'd find you've been creepin' 'round my back stairs
Sundown, you'd better take care
If I find you've been creepin' 'round my back stairs
Sometimes I think it's a sin
When I feel like I'm winnin' when I'm losin' again
