[00:08.36]Nighttime's falling on Summerlee
[00:11.02]And supper's getting cold
[00:14.17]It's the second time in as many weeks
[00:18.02]He hasn't shown
[00:21.26]He's probably chasing some old steer
[00:24.50]Across some prairie storm
[00:28.27]When she asks him he'll just shrug
[00:31.13]And say "That's the way things go"
[00:36.56]But he only gets into town twice a month
[00:39.96]And he gets out as fast as he can
[00:43.21]And he don't have a phone so she can't call him up
[00:46.59]And she never knows where he is
[00:50.13]He smells like horses and he chews tobacco
[00:53.62]And he cusses and he spits
[00:56.87]She's been in love a couple times before
[01:00.62]But never quite like this
[01:05.93]Next month it'll be those damned
[01:08.94]Old rodeos and fairs
[01:11.53]And he'll be gone for six weeks straight
[01:15.69]To God only knows where
[01:19.10]And he won't win any money
[01:22.89]Worse than that he won't care
[01:26.36]When she asks him he'll just shrug
[01:29.16]"He had a real good time out there"
[01:34.43]But he only gets into town twice a month
[01:37.84]And he gets out as fast as he can
[01:41.14]And he don't have a phone so she can't call him up
[01:44.42]And she never knows where he is
[01:48.07]He smells like horses and he chews tobacco
[01:51.48]And he cusses and he spits
[01:54.70]She's been in love a couple times before
[01:58.44]But never quite like this
[02:06.80]Well he stops his horse to get a light
[02:10.27]And the water pours off his hat
[02:13.46]He's been out in the storm most of the night
[02:17.07]And he ought to be getting back
[02:20.18]He's been thinking about the colour of her hair
[02:23.73]And the touch of her hand
[02:27.10]And the way she quietly smiles
[02:30.93]Whenever she looks at him
[02:35.80]But he only gets into town twice a month
[02:39.33]And he gets out as fast as he can
[02:42.43]And he don't have a phone so she can't call him up
[02:45.74]And he never knows where she is
[02:49.14]She smells like flowers and perfume
[02:52.51]And tobacco and gin
[02:56.16]He's been in love a couple times before
[02:59.68]But never quite like this
[03:04.46]He's been in love a couple times before
[03:08.09]But never quite like this
[03:43.07]Nighttime's falling on Summerlee
[03:45.85]And supper's getting cold
