Evangeline Lyrics - Sammy Kershaw

She's been here workin' all summer long 

Pumpin' gas for the boats on the Cote Blanche 

She's so brown from bein' in the sun all day 

And boys from town hang around her pa paw's place 

And they all say 

Hey, you can see her down at the boat dock 

Walkin' up the pier in her flip flops 

Tyin' up the lines in her tank top 

Dippin' out the bait at the bait shop 

Every boy around would love to say, "That girl's mine" 

Summer's gonna end I know 

Oh, we gonna miss you so 

Wish you didn't have to go, Evangeline 

It won't be long, she'll be goin' back to school 

Well, goin' home, all the way to Baton Rouge 

Well, her pa paw says he'll get along the best he can 

And all the boys will be so brokenhearted then 

'Til it's summer again 

Then you can see her down at the boat dock 

Walkin' up the pier in her flip flops 

Tyin' up the lines in her tank top 

Dippin' out the bait at the bait shop 

Every boy around would love to say, "That girl's mine" 

Summer's gonna end I know 

Oh, we gonna miss you so 

Wish you didn't have to go, Evangeline 

Well, every boy around would love to say, "That girl's mine" 

Summer's gonna end I know 

Oh, we gonna miss you so 

Wish you didn't have to go, Evangeline 

Girl, I'm gonna miss you so, Evangeline
