Eb
She stands on the banks of the mighty Mississippi
Bb
Alone in the pale moonlight
Bb
Waitin' for a man, a riverboat gambler
Eb
Said that he'd return tonight
They used to waltz on the banks of the mighty Mississippi
Bb
Lovin' the whole night through
Bb
He was a riverboat gambler off to make a killin'
Eb
And bring it on back to you
G# Eb
Evangeline Evangeline
Bb Eb
Curses the soul of the Mississippi Queen
Bb Eb
That pulled her man away
SOLO
Eb
Bayou Sam from South Louisian'
Bb
Had gamblin' in his veins
Evangeline from the maritime
Eb
Was slowly goin' insane
High on the top of a Hickory Hill
Bb
She stands in the lightning and thunder
Down on the river the boat was a sinkin'
Eb
She watched that Queen go under
G# Eb
Evangeline Evangeline
Bb Eb
Curses the soul of the Mississippi Queen
Bb Eb
That pulled her man away
G# Eb
Evangeline Evangeline
Bb Eb
Curses the soul of the Mississippi Queen
Bb Eb
That pulled her man away
