Lyrics
Every night when the sun goes down
Every night when the sun goes down
Every night when the sun goes down
Hang my head and mournful cry
Suzanne, Suzanne
Suzanne, you're gone
True love don't weep, true love don't mourn
True love don't weep, true love don't mourn
True love don't weep or mourn for me
Going back to Mobile town
Someday I pray my train will come
Someday I pray my train will come
Someday I pray my train will come
Then I can go back where I come from
Suzanne, Suzanne
Suzanne, you're gone
Every night when the sun goes down
Every night when the sun goes down
Every night when the sun goes down
Hang my head and mournful cry
Suzanne, Suzanne
Suzanne, you're gone
Thank you very much
This evening there is quite a program in store for you
What, with the Chad Mitchell Trio, Odetta
And Ms. Miriam Makeba and the folk singers
We're going to be here for quite a while
And earlier today, during rehearsals
We had decided that we had better put
All of the more strenuous pieces upfront
So that after we have keeled over from exastion
There would not be any great effort needed for the end of the program
Consequently, this next song that we are about to do
Is the most difficult song that we have on the program this evening
Uh, we had a much larger choir to start with
There were some 40 members
But uh, during the rehearsal, so strenuous was this piece
That most of the man had to take off because of laryngitis
Uh, uh, enough said about that
Because if I talk too long I won't have the energy to sing the song
A little lyrics, of great importance
