Got me a girl in acadia my evangeline But I ain't seen her face in three long years Since I sailed away to sea She comes to me at night when I'm dreaming Long hair blowin' in the breeze And what feels like the warm embrace of her arms Is really just the rolling of the seas So carry me away boys, carry me away Carry me to my home 'Cause I long for the girl with The sun in her eyes Evangeline, I'm coming home So get ready, get set And here we go We'll sail away to pubnico Where the women are warm when the cold Wind blows We'll sail away to pubnico Now she stands on the shore so sweetly Eyes cast out to the sea And the tears that she cries Fall like rain from the skies I can taste them at the bottom of the sea Oh evangeline, please don't wait for me I'm never coming home, evangeline
