In the evening by the moonlightWhen my mother had finished workingWe used to sit around the fire placeTill the cornbread it was doneAnd then we all would eat our supperAfter that we'd clean the kitchenIt's the only time they ever gave us to spareTo have a little funThen my daddy used to take his fiddle downThat hung upon the wallWhile the silvery moon was shining clear and brightHow the folks would enjoy itThey would sit all night and listenAs we used to sing in the evening by the moonlightIn the evening by the moonlightYou could hear banjos ringingYou could hear them by the moonlightYou could hear my folks all singingHow my mother she would enjoy itShe would sit all night and listenAs we sang in the evening by the moonlight oh yeahIn the evening by the moonlightYou could hear folks all singingIn the evening by the moonlightSongtexteYou could hear my folks all singingHow my mother she would enjoy itShe would sit all night and listenAs we sang in the evening by the moonlight oh yeahIn the evening by the moonlightYou could hear banjos ringingIn the evening by the moonlightYou could hear my folks all singingHow my mother she would enjoy itShe would sit all night and listenAs we sang in the evening by the moonlight oh yeahHear them bells, the story of our loveHear them bells from up aboveMy darling, I need you, more each dayI'd be contented dearIf only you would sayI'll be yours forever, sweetheartOur love is real, we'll never ever partTo be with you, love is my one desireAnd if you'll leave meYou'll set my soul on fireHear them bells, the story of our loveHear them bells, the story of our loveHear them bells, the story's in their soundHear them bells, I'm heaven boundTo be with you, love ,is my one desireAnd if you'll leave meYou'll set my soul on fireHear them bells, the story of our loveHear them bells, the story of our love Aus Songtexte Mania
