lirik lagu the band – evangeline
e
(intro)
a
she stands on the banks of the mighty mississippi
e
alone in the pale moonlight
waiting for a man, a riverboat gambler
a
said that he’d return tonight
they used to waltz on the banks of the mighty mississippi
e
loving the whole night through
’til the riverboat gambler went off to make a killing
a
and bring it on back to you.
d a
evangeline, evangeline
e a
curses the soul of the mississippi queen
e a
that pulled her man away.
bayou sam, from the south lousianne
had gambling in his veins
evangeline, from the maritimes(-)
was slowly going insane.
high on the top of hickory hill
she stands in the lightning and thunder
down on the river the boat was a-sinking
she watched that queen go under
