Evangeline Lyrics - Singles - Jerry Garcia Band

Evangeline 

She's on her own 

Just barely seventeen 

When she left home 

Don't know where she's been 

Or where she's going 

She is the queen of make-believe 

Evangeline 

I still remember 

This little girl 

Black eyes just staring 

At this mean old world 

Went off to find 

Some American dream 

Train ticket in the pocket 

In her new blue jeans 

Evangeline 

She's on her own 

Just barely seventeen 

When she left home 

Don't know where she's been 

Or where she's going 

She is the queen of make-believe 

Evangeline 

She went out dancing 

On a Saturday night 

Silk stockings and high heels 

Looking fine and running wild 

On Sunday morning 

She's all alone 

Head lying on the back stair 

By the telephone 

Evangeline 

She's on her own 

Just barely seventeen 

When she left home 

Don't know where she's been 

Or where she's going 

She is the queen of make-believe 

Evangeline 

I still remember 

This little girl 

Black eyes just staring 

At this mean old world 

Went off to find 

Some some American dream 

Train ticket in the pocket 

In her new blue jeans 

Evangeline 

She's on her own 

Just barely seventeen 

When she left home 

Don't know where she's been 

Or where she's going 

She is the queen of make-believe 

Evangeline 

Evangeline 

She's on her own 

Just barely seventeen 

When she left home 

Don't know where she's been 

Or where she's going 

She is the queen of make-believe 

Evangeline 

She is the queen of make-believe 

Evangeline
