Evangelina Lyrics

Evangelina lyrics

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
