Evangeline
Robbie Robertson
A
She stands on the banks of the mighty Mississippi
E
Alone in the pale moonlight
E
Waitin' 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
Lovin' the whole night through
A
He was a riverboat gambler off to make a killin'
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
SOLO
A
Bayou Sam from South Louisian'
E
Had gamblin' in his veins
Evangeline from the maritime
A
Was slowly goin' insane
High on the top of a Hickory Hill
E
She stands in the lightning and thunder
Down on the river the boat was a sinkin'
A
She watched that Queen go under
D A
Evangeline Evangeline
E A
Curses the soul of the Mississippi Queen
E A
That pulled her man away

Curses the soul of the Mississippi Queen

That pulled her man away
