She left home with my last name Left her mark tattooed on the back of my brain Oh yeah, she was a friend of mine Same old story you've heard a thousand times I had nickels, that girl wanted dimes Oh yeah, she was my Valentine If you see that girl out walking your way Throw your hand up and tell her I said, "Hey." Oh yeah, come on home Oh Angeline, where have you gone? Oh Angeline, where have you gone? Alright She had enough money to get herself outta town Next thing I know, she is New Orleans bound Oh Lord, come back home I stay home and try to make ends meet She's turning tricks down on Royal Street Oh Lord, she's long gone If you see that girl out walking the wrong way Turn her around and send her back my way, oh yeah Come on back home Oh Angeline, where have you gone? Oh Angeline, I wrote you this song Oh Angeline, where have you gone? (Oh Angeline) Oh Angeline, oh yeah, right She ain't got nothing but the clothes on her back, I know She ain't got nobody to tell her Where she needs to go She ain't got no friends, no family, nowhere, no how She ain't got nothing, that girl ain't got nothing, oh no no, no Oh Angeline (Angeline), where have you gone? Oh Angeline (I'm heartbroken, lonesome, oh), I wrote you this song Oh Angeline (I'm never gonna see you), where have you gone? (Oh) Oh Angeline,(Never gonna be like it was before, no Oh, come on home now) Ooo Oh, come on home, oh yeah...
