Long Summer Evening
Long summer evening
Work done for the day-ay
Heading down to the river
Me and my baby to play
Work clothes on the river bank
Wash all our toil away
Hold onto each other
Nothing much to say
But we’ve got the long summer evening
We’ve got the warm summer night
And we’ve got all of each other
And we’re gonna hold on tight
We’re gonna hold on tight———––
Hold on tight
Sun going down
Behind the trees
Night comes in afallin’
Moon on the rise
The strong current of this river
Could carry us away
But we have our roots here
And tomorrow’s another day
And we’ve got the long summer evening
We’ve got the warm summer night
And we’ve got all of each other
And we’re gonna hold on tight
We’re gonna hold on tight———––
Hold on tight
Some day we will look back
And just long for these days
Down by the river
Washing our troubles away
But we’ve got the long summer evening
We’ve got the warm summer night
And we’ve got all of each other
And we’re gonna hold on tight
We’re gonna hold on tight———––
Hold on tight
Long summer evening
Work done for the day-ay
Heading down to the river
Me and my baby to play
Work clothes on the river bank
Wash all our toil away
Hold onto each other
Nothing much to say
Yeah, we’ve got the long summer evening
We’ve got the warm summer night
And we’ve got all of each other
And we’re gonna hold on tight
We’re gonna hold on tight———––
Hold on tight
Thanks, Colleen! Always have fun singing this one. Really want to try it as a duet, if you know of any volunteers?
