Angelina
From the day I came to town Shopkeepers have shown me photos Old Mrs.Green sat me down Told me the tale with her eyes closed
There was a girl of such beauty She never had to be greedy She never spoke badly to us
She never spoke that much And I tried to join them in church But I'd smelled this stain before And this time it turned me for the worst
Charity she always seemed such a martyr, yeah Faith how she plays hard to get Often I have heard them speak of Angelina Angelina I never once have meet Angelina I never once have meet
You can imagine the pressure Being a good girl like me It's just like being a good boy With no woman's breast From which you pretend to wean
And old Mrs. Green would not have it And my friends at the factory Neither could they break their habits Seeing my thoughts as an outsiders luxury
And I tried to hold my chest high Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com But I cringed when he touched my hair I cried I'm sorry but don't bother to try
Charity she always seemed such a martyr, yeah Faith how she plays hard to get Often I have heard them speak of Angelina Angelina I never once have meet Angelina I never once have meet
They're out at Higgens' barn Bartering with a bible And I'm at the washbasin And chopping my hair off and singing revival
Charity she always seemed such a martyr, yeah Faith how she plays hard to get Often I have heard them speak of Angelina Angelina I never once have meet Angelina I never once have meet
So I stumbled down to the stone house To grow back immortal She was smoked in a booth With a plateful of cigarettes
I laughed, pardon me miss Are you Angelina? She said good lord She said honey good guess
