Subject: RE: Lyr Req: In The Evening, When The Sun Goes Dow
My mom used to sing the song that Mudlark posted. I was just trying to sing it a few days ago, and realized that I'd never heard more than the first 2 verses. I just checked and it's in Mudcat, which gives its origin and says it's in the Cecil Sharp collection. Wonder where Mom learned it. Does anyone know who recorded it (probably during the late 30's or early to mid 40's? Long before the Folk Scare, anyway....
