Sundown

Yo I could see her lying back in a satin dress
In a room where you do what you don't confess
She was a high pocket rumblin', movin' in the oven in
Turn table in turn table, B what's the deal

Sometimes I rhyme slow, sometimes I rhyme quick
When it's time to get busy out the hat comes a trick

So when the sun goes down you better take care
For find you've been creepin' around my back stair

Sundown you better take care
If I find you been creepin' 'round my back stair

She's a queen, lookin' mean in a sailor's dream
She gotta come clean, gotta say what she mean
She gotta fess up, yo is her dress up?
Oh indeed, and tell em how it is B, bring em up to speed

Sometimes I rhyme slow, sometimes I rhyme quick
When it's time to get busy out the hat comes a trick

It's a shame when a game leaves you out the frame
It's the lovin' for the sinnin' comes the losin' and the winnin'

Sometimes I think its a shame when I get feeling better
When I'm feeling no pain

See I could picture every move that a man could make
You took steps, you fell in love, and that's your first mistake
You in a hole, gotta pole, but you shimmy up the wrong way
Hey yo the suns going down and I feel like its my last day

Sundown, you better take care
If I find you been creepin' 'round my back stair
Sometimes I think it's a sin
When I feel like I'm winning when I'm losin' again

Yeah, sometimes the silence is just more valuable

She let her hair down, big frown, sad 'cause she's lost out
A big city cat who goes for minds on a trip
Day by day the sunshine soakin' in a warm bath
The sunlight

I can see her lying back in a satin dress
In a room where you do what you don't confess
Sundown, sundown, sundown
I can picture every move a man could make
Gettin' lost in her lovin' is your first mistake
Sundown, sundown, sundown
She was looking fast in the faded jeans
She's a hard lovin' woman, gotta know what I mean
She stepped up in the spot
She made the spot hot
Give it away, give it away yeah

Sometimes I think its a shame
When I get feeling better when I'm feeling no pain
And sundown you better take care
If I find you been creepin' 'round my back stair
And sundown you better take care
If I find you been creepin' 'round
Find you been creepin' 'round my back stair
And sometimes I think it's a sin
When I feel like I'm winning when I'm losing again
Oh, I'm losing again
I'm losing again
I'm losing again
I'm losing again
I'm losing again
I'm losing again
I'm losing again
I'm losing again
