Текст песни Evangeline (With the Band) (Emmylou Harris) с переводом

She stands on the bank of the mighty Mississippi

Alone in the pale moonlight

Waitin' for a man, a riverboat gambler

Said that he’d return tonight

They used to waltz on the banks of the mighty Mississippi

Lovin' the whole night through

'Til the riverboat gambler went off to make a killing

And bring it on back to you

Evangeline, Evangeline

Curses the soul of the Mississippi Queen

That pulled her man away

Bayou Sam, from South Louisian'

Had gambling in his veins

Evangeline, from the Maritimes

Was slowly goin' insane

High on the top of Hickory Hill

She stands in the lightnin' and thunder

Down on the river the boat was a-sinkin'

She watched that queen go under

Evangeline, Evangeline

Curses the soul of the Mississippi Queen

That pulled her man away

Evangeline, Evangeline

Curses the soul of the Mississippi Queen

That pulled her man away
