Hurry Sundown

Peter Paul And Mary · Other Songs - Peter Paul And Mary

My seed is sown now, my field is plowed;

My flesh is bone now, my back is bowed.

(Chorus:)

So hurry, sundown, be on your way,

And hurry me a sun-up from this beat-up sundown day.

Hurry down, sundown, be on your way;

Weave me tomorrow out of today.

Tomorrow's breeze now, blows clear and loud;

I'm off my knees now, I'm standing proud.

(Chorus:)

My sorrow's song, now, just must break through,

That brave new dawn, now, long overdue.

(Chorus:)

Hurry down, sundown, get thee be gone,

Get lost in the sunrise, of a new dawn.

Hurry down, sundown, take the old day,

Wrap it in new dreams, send it my way!

Send it my way!

Send it my way!
