Evangeline

(Album: When The Money's All Gone - 2009)

Fare thee well, Evangeline
Merci de la maison, my cajun queen
I'm going back, I'm going back down to New Orleans
Fare thee well, Evangeline

When the waters were high and the days were long
I said goodbye but I can't stay gone
Thanks for your time, you've been my stone
But I say adieu 'cause I don't belong, I'm going home

Fare thee well, Evangeline
Merci de la maison, my cajun queen
I'm going back, I'm going back down to New Orleans
Fare thee well, Evangeline

I've waited for that sun to shine
Now this troubadour is gonna be just fine
Je tu adore, you've been to kind
But I've got my umbrella and I'm headed for the second line

Fare thee well, Evangeline
Merci de la maison, my cajun queen
I'm going back, I'm going back down to New Orleans
Fare thee well, Evangeline

Fare thee well, Evangeline
Merci de la maison, my cajun queen
I'm going back, I'm going back down to New Orleans
Fare thee well, Evangeline
