Evangeline - Los Lobos

Evangeline is on the roam

Just barely seventeen

When she left home

Don’t know where she is

Or where she’s going

She is the queen of make believe, Evangeline

I can still remember this little girl

Black eyes just staring

At this big old world

Ran off to find some American dream

Train ticket in one hand

In her new blue jeans

Evangeline is on the roam

Just barely seventeen

When she left home

Don’t know where she is

Or where she’s going

She is the queen of make believe, Evangeline

She went out dancin' on a Saturday night

Silk stockings and high heels

Blue liner on her eyes

But on Sunday morning she’s all alone

Head lying on the nightstand

By the telephone

Evangeline is on the roam

Just barely seventeen

When she left home

Don’t know where she is

Or where she’s going

She is the queen of make believe, Evangeline

She is the queen of make believe, Evangeline
