Evangelina |
| I dream in the morning |
| That she brings me water |
| And I dream in evening |
| That she brings me wine |
| Just a poor man’s daughter |
| From Puerto Penasco |
| Evangelina in old Mexico |
| There’s a great hot desert |
| South of Mexicali |
| And if you don’t have water |
| Then you better not go Tequila won’t get you |
| Across the desert |
| To Evangelina in old Mexico |
| And the fire I feel for the |
| Woman I love |
| Is driving me insane |
| Knowing she’s waiting |
| And I just can’t get there |
| Lord only knows that I’ve |
| Racked my brain |
| To try and find a way |
| To see that woman in old Mexico |
| I met a kind man |
| Who guarded the border |
| He said you don’t have papers |
| But I’ll let you go I can tell that you love her |
| By the look in your eyes now |
| She’s the rose of the desert |
| In old Mexico |
| And the fire I feel for the |
| Woman I love |
| Is driving me insane |
| Knowing she’s waiting |
| And I just can’t get there |
| Lord only knows that I’ve |
| Racked my brain |
| To try and find a way |
| To see tht woman in old Mexico |
| And I dream in the morning |
| That she brings me water |
| And I dream in the evening |
| That she brings me wine |
| Just a poor man’s daughter |
| From Puerto Penasco |
| Evangelina in old Mexico |
| There’s a great hot desert |
| South of Mexicali |
| And if you don’t have water |
| Then you better not go Tequila won’t get you |
| Across the desert |
| To Evangelina in old Mexico |
| She’s the rose of the desert |
| In old Mexico |
