[Verse 1]
I can work all day
Don't worry 'bout my pay
I got a sweetie pie
She'll maybe come one day
[Hook]
'Cause when I get home, she's gonna kiss me
Hold me, squeeze me, love and please me
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah
She's gonna love me, I know she's gonna love me
At sundown
[Verse 2]
I'll bet the roosters crow
Her grandpa march and go
Trail bound with a huh, huh, hooey!
Until that whistle blows
[Hook]
But when I get home, she's gonna kiss me
Hold me, squeeze me, love and please me
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah
She's gonna love me, I know she's gonna love me
At sundown
[Verse 3]
Sometimes the load gets heavy
It knocks me to my knees
I think about my baby
I lift that load with ease
[Hook]
'Cause when I get home, she's gonna kiss me
Hold me, squeeze me, love and please me
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah
She's gonna love me, I know she's gonna love me
At sundown
[Outro]
And I keep her in my crowd
And I won't have a frown
I'm gonna see my baby at sundown
I'm gonna love her, hold her
Squeeze her and kiss her
At sundown, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
I love my baby
I can work all day
Don't worry 'bout my pay
I got a sweetie pie
She'll maybe come one day
[Hook]
'Cause when I get home, she's gonna kiss me
Hold me, squeeze me, love and please me
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah
She's gonna love me, I know she's gonna love me
At sundown
[Verse 2]
I'll bet the roosters crow
Her grandpa march and go
Trail bound with a huh, huh, hooey!
Until that whistle blows
[Hook]
But when I get home, she's gonna kiss me
Hold me, squeeze me, love and please me
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah
She's gonna love me, I know she's gonna love me
At sundown
[Verse 3]
Sometimes the load gets heavy
It knocks me to my knees
I think about my baby
I lift that load with ease
[Hook]
'Cause when I get home, she's gonna kiss me
Hold me, squeeze me, love and please me
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah
She's gonna love me, I know she's gonna love me

And I keep her in my crowd
And I won't have a frown
I'm gonna see my baby at sundown
I'm gonna love her, hold her
Squeeze her and kiss her
At sundown, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
I love my baby
