Paul Simon Late In The Evening

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
