lyrics:
work is over now it's evening time
we go walk the mountain
we go walk the mountain
we go walk the mountainside
make we cook and bake up on the way
make we laugh and sing
dance and play ring ding 'pon the mountainside

cook up the fire marta bring me the gunga peas
rub up the flour sarah
oh lord the evening breeze

evening time
work is over now it's evening time
we go walk the mountain
we go walk the mountain
we go walk the mountainside
make we cook and bake up on the way
make we laugh and sing
dance and play ring ding 'pon the mountainside

come miss jane take the hamper off your head me dear
evening breeze a'blow come this way mass joe
help down here after you no beast of burden dear
make yourself at ease
in the evening breeze

evening time
work is over now it's evening time
we go walk the mountain
we go walk the mountain
we go walk the mountainside
make we cook and bake up on the way
make we laugh and sing
dance and play ring ding 'pon the mountainside
