Evangeline Songtext
von Two Lone Swordsmen

A list of initials, a list of ships
Reading left to right all the way ′round her hips
A list of the places, the dates and times
Teardrops big and blue that never ever shine
A list of the campaigns, the battles and wars
And panthers drawing blood from her flesh with their claws
She had panthers drawing blood from her flesh with their claws
She's got the signs, I got the scribe
I′ve got designs on her, Evangeline, Evangeline
A pair of red scorpions with their tails curled
An Indian chief and a map of the world
A pair of black flowers and a pair of blue
Daggers cut the message "loyal and true"
A pair of hyenas, a pack of wolves
Silver moons of Venus and some golden rules
Silver moons of Venus and some golden rules
She's got the signs, I got the scribe
I've got designs on her, Evangeline, Evangeline
A long Bible passage and a devil′s fork
A long Hula Girl that wiggles when she walks


A long prayer to Jesus, a short goodbye
Thirty singing skulls and an all-seeing eye
A long lost compadre, a freshly stone
An army of copper words, "please carry me home"
An army of copper words, "please carry me home"
She′s got the signs, I got the scribe
I've got designs on her, Evangeline, Evangeline
She′s got the signs, I got the scribe
I've got designs on her, Evangeline, Evangeline
Raphael′s cherubs on her breast, the Angelus just below
The idols eye, a lucky hand, one part Spanish, four part Crow
That, my friends, is Evangeline, also known as the human snake
She won my heart some time ago, she gave that heart a break
But I've seen you now, sweet revenge, retribution′s stern
She fell in love with a tattooed man who broke her heart in turn
Evangeline, Evangeline
Evangeline, Evangeline
Oh, oh, Evangeline, Evangeline
Oh, oh, Evangeline, Evangeline
She's got the signs, I got the scribe
I've got designs on her, Evangeline, Evangeline
