Performed by Paul Simon 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. |
