Lyrics: Evenin' creeping down the mountain Wakes up mister firefly Bullfrog settin' there starts a-croakin' But I don't care Since I kissed my baby goodbye South wind shakes the old magnolia Moon man likes the dingy sky Star, star sprinklin' gold on the river But still I'm cold Since I kissed my baby goodbye Since my baby and me parted company I can't see what's the diff' If I live or I die Oh Lord, I'm takin' such a beatin' I'm no good, even cheatin' Since I kissed my baby goodbye
