Evangeline My first lady, She wears satin gloves Since her hands got dirty She travels here She travels there . . . She's on the a list Everywhere
I can't take it anymore If she calls back, Tell her I went uptown to the downtown store
Evangeline With her lips like curtains, But you best know And it's for certain
With all her monies You and I got none She's got a satin pillow Covering her pearly gun
I can't take it anymore If she calls back, Tell her I went down to the liquor store
Refrain She's a diver And the ladder's getting taller She's a diver And the pool is getting smaller If she takes one more step higher Then the water will turn to fire
All our monies was all that held her She should learn to respect her elders
Her boys grab your hands Her boys lift your feet
Lord, my whole building is out in the street
I can't take it anymore If she calls back, Tell her I went uptown to the downtown store
