Bob Wayne - Evangeline Lyrics

Evangeline was her name
Death was her game
But you wouldn't know it by those
Blue eyes
She rode into town
Lonesome from the road
On a horse as black as the night
And as her soul
Evangeline ....please come in from the cold
When i first saw her
Hair blonde as the sun
I thought surely lord for I am done
We married fast
No sooner then her spell was cast
There was evil hidden in those wedding vows
Evangeline the witch...let me out
I woke one morn blood on my hands
No memory of the night before
Later that day, the news of a young women slain
Sacrificed neath the harvest moon
Evangeline the witch ...what did you do
Evangeline....what did you do
Later that night awakened with fright
By an evil laughter next to my bedside
There i saw evangeline standing tall
Her blonde hair now a silvery white
I called out, but from my voice there was no sound
As if in a dream I couldn't speak
Then at once snakes came from her tongue
And on my soul they began to feast
Your a witch...... Evangeline
The next morning
I awoke
Evangeline sleeping
Softy by my side
I snuck away,
For I was to betray
My cursed love Evangeline
Oh, Evangeline
I told the town and they all gathered round
And the crows filled up the grey sky
They bound her hands and knees
And tied her to a tree
Yelling ""burn the witch Evangeline
Burn the witch Evangeline
