A                D           E
Sun tanned toes ticklin the sand
A                         D     E
Cold drink chillin in my right hand
A                        D       E
Watchin you sleep in the evenin light
A                E         A
Restin up for a long long night

Chorus:
A                             D
Cause when the sun goes down we'll be groovin'
A                               E
When the sun goes down, you're feelin alright
A                        D         E
When the sun sinks down, over the water
A                                E        A
Everything gets hotter when the sun goes down,
yeah

All day long just takin' it easy
Laying in the hammock where it's nice and breezy
Sleeping off the night before
'Cause when the sun goes down,
we'll be back for more

Chorus:
When the sun goes down, we'll be grooving
When the sun goes down, we'll be feeling all right
When the sun sinks down over the water
Everything gets hotter when the sun goes down

This old guitar and my dark sunglasses
This sweet concoction is smooth as molasses
Nothing to do but breathe all day
Until the big moon rises and it's time to play

Chorus:
When the sun goes down, we'll be grooving
When the sun goes down, we'll be feeling all right
When the sun sinks down over the water
Everything gets hotter when the sun goes down
(When the sun goes down)
When the sun goes down, we'll be grooving
When the sun goes down, we'll be feeling all right
When the sun sinks down over the water
Everything gets hotter when the sun goes down,
yeah

Chorus:
When the sun goes down, we'll be grooving
When the sun goes down, we'll be feeling all right
When the sun sinks down over the water
Everything gets hotter when the sun goes down
When the sun goes down, we'll be grooving
When the sun goes down, we feeling all right
When the sun sinks down over the water
She thinks Cracker's sexy when the sun goes down

Mh-mh-mh
We'll be feeling alright
When the sun sinks down over the water
Uncle Kennys' hotter when the sun goes down
When the sun goes down, oh, we'll be grooving
When the sun sinks down, hey, Uncle Kenny
Over the water
Everything gets hotter when the sun goes down
