They definitely sing "где ты вечер пропадал", not ночью. And I don't think "пропадал" is right in the last verse, but I'm not sure what the right word is.

Original lyrics
Про Ивана groove
Ой, Иван то ты Иван,
где ты ночью пропадал,
где ты ночью пропадал,
что у девки не бывал
Что у девки не бывал,
сударушки не видал,
сударушка девушка,
не гневайся на меня,
сударушка девушка,
не гневайся на меня,
Не гневайся на меня,
что я не был у тебя,
что я не был не бывал,
на улице пропадал,
на улице пропадал,
во скрипочку проиграл.

Translation
Ivan The Groove
Hey, Ivan, you, Ivan
Where were you at night
Where were you at night
That you didn't turn up at the girl's place?
For my not turning up at my girl's place
Or coming to see my fair darling
Oh, my dear fair girl,
Don't be angry with me
Oh, dear girl
Don't be angry with me
Don't be angry with me
Because I was not with you
Because I wasn't, no, I wasn't with you
I lost myself in the street
I lost myself in the street
I spent all night out playing the violin
