Well the people would come from far away Dance all night to the break of day Caller he'd holler out "Do Si Do" You knew Uncle Pen was rarin' to go Late in the evening about sundown High on the hill and above the town Uncle Pen played the fiddle Lord how it rang You could hear it talk you could hear it sing "Look out boys" Well he played an old tune they called the "Soldier's Joy" And I learned one called the "Boston Boy" Greatest of all was the "Jennie Lynn" And to me that's where the fiddlin' begins Late in the evening about sundown High on the hill and above the town Uncle Pen played the fiddle Lord how it rang You could hear it talk you could hear it sing "Aw jump in there Rick" (Instrumental) Well I'll never forget that mournful day When old Uncle Pen was called away He hung up his fiddle and he hung up his bow He knew it was time for him to go Late in the evening about sundown High on the hill and above the town Uncle Pen played the fiddle Lord how it rang You could hear it talk you could hear it sing (Instrumental) Late in the evening about sundown High on the hill and above the town Uncle Pen played the fiddle Lord how it rang You could hear it talk you could hear it sing

La chanson évoque des souvenirs d'une époque où les gens se rassemblaient pour danser jusqu'à l'aube, attirés par la musique entraînante d'Uncle Pen. Ce dernier, installé au sommet d'une colline, jouait du violon avec tant d'énergie que sa musique semblait prendre vie, captivant l'assistance. Les mélodies qu'il interprétait, comme "Soldier's Joy" et "Boston Boy", comptaient parmi ses préférées et marquaient le début de la passion pour le violon chez beaucoup. Malheureusement, le récit prend une tournure mélancolique avec la perte d'Uncle Pen, qui, après avoir passé tant de moments joyeux à jouer, se voit contraint de raccrocher son instrument. Ce passage, symbolisant le temps qui passe et les adieux inévitables, rappelle à chacun l’importance de célébrer les moments passés, notamment à travers la musique qui unit les gens.
