Evangeline by Emmylou Harris


She stands on the banks of mighty Mississippi

Alone in the pale moonlight

Waitin' for a man a riverboat gambler

Said that he'd return tonight

 

They used to waltz on the banks of the mighty Mississippi

Lovin' the whole night through

He was a riverboat gambler off to make a killin'

And bring it on back to you

 

Evangeline Evangeline

Curses the soul of the Mississippi Queen

That pulled her man away

Bayou Sam from South Louisian'

Had gamblin' in his veins

Evangeline from the maritime

Was slowly goin' insane

 

High on the top of a Hickory Hill

She stands in the lightning and thunder

Down on the river the boat was a sinkin'

She watched that Queen go under

 

Evangeline Evangeline

Curses the soul of the Mississippi Queen

That pulled her man away

 

Evangeline Evangeline

Curses the soul of the Mississippi Queen

That pulled her man away
