Late In The Evening Lyrics by Paul Simon
Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
The first thing I remember, I was lying in my bed
I couldn't've been no more than one or two
And I remember there's a radio, coming from the room next door
My mother laughed the way some ladies' do

Well it's late in the evening, and the music's seeping through

The next thing I remember, I am walking down a street
I'm feeling alright I'm with my boys and with my troops, yeah
Down along the avenue some guys are shootin' pool
And I heard the sound of acapella groups, yeah

Singin' late in the evening, and all the girls out on the stoops, yeah

Then I learned to play some lead guitar, I was underage in this funky bar
And I stepped outside to smoke myself a j
When I come back to the room, everybody just seemed to move
And I turned my amp up loud and I began to play

It was late in the evening, and I blew that room away

First thing I remember when you came into my life
I said I wanna get that girl, no matter what I do
Well I guess I've been in love before and once or twice have been on the floor
But I've never loved no-one the way that I love you

And it was late in the evening, and all the music's seeping through
The first thing I remember, I was lying in my bed   I couldn't've been no more than one or two   And I remember there's a radio, coming from the room next door   My mother laughed the way some ladies' do      Well it's late in the evening, and the music's seeping through      The next thing I remember, I am walking down a street   I'm feeling alright I'm with my boys and with my troops, yeah   Down along the avenue some guys are shootin' pool   And I heard the sound of acapella groups, yeah      Singin' late in the evening, and all the girls out on the stoops, yeah      Then I learned to play some lead guitar, I was underage in this funky bar   And I stepped outside to smoke myself a j   When I come back to the room, everybody just seemed to move   And I turned my amp up loud and I began to play      It was late in the evening, and I blew that room away      First thing I remember when you came into my life   I said I wanna get that girl, no matter what I do   Well I guess I've been in love before and once or twice have been on the floor   But I've never loved no-one the way that I love you      And it was late in the evening, and all the music's seeping through
