Evangeline

Evangeline

Is on the roam

Just barely seventeen

When she left home

Don't know where she is

Or where she's goin'

She is the queen of make believe

Evangeline

I can still remember

This little girl

Black eyes just starin'

At this big ol' world

Ran off to find

Some American dream

Train ticket in one hand

In her new blue jeans

Evangeline

Is on the roam

Just barely seventeen

When she left home

Don't know where she is

Or where she's goin'

She is the queen of make believe

Evangeline

She went out dancin'

On a Saturday night

Silk stockings and high heels

Blue liner on her eyes

But on Sunday morning

She's all alone

Head lyin' on the nightstand

By the telephone

Evangeline

Is on the roam

Just barely seventeen

When she left home

Don't know where she is

Or where she's goin'

She is the queen of make believe

Evangeline

She is the queen of make believe

Evangeline
