EVANGELINE
When English ships set sail, to Acadia,
An exiled nation, on our wedding day
Well I swore then I’d find you someplace
Oh, oh, along the way
Chorus 1
Oh, oh Evangeline
Oh - Oh – Oh, Evangeline
Your Gabriel
You’ll see once more
Oh - oh, Evangeline
Chorus 2
Oh, oh Evangeline
Oh - Oh – Oh, Evangeline
Full of grace, full of grace
Full of grace, full of grace
Oh – oh, Evangeline
I’ll be there will you wait for me?
From the Ozarks up to Maine
From the Eden of Louisiana
Do you hear me call your name
But her body barely breaks
In Nova Scotia, oh Grand-Pre
Fair was she, just seventeen.
And her eyes were black and her breath was sweet.
Yeah, there shone the face of Evangeline
I’ll be there
If you wait for me
From the Ozarks up to Maine
From the prairie’s out, to the ocean
Do you hear me call your name
But do you know what I’ve become
Do you know what I’ve become?
When we return, yeah
To Canada
Oh,- oh, it will be our, wedding day
And the years we’ll find have never aged us
Acadie, all the way
I’ll be there will you wait for me
From the Ozarks up to Maine
A ship wrecked nation
Out on the waters
We will swim against the tide
Though our body breaks inside
You’re a soul shaker
And a, heart breaker

The Ghosts of New Orleans
Oh New Orleans
Star of the South
Cut from a cloth
Some men despise
All of my days
I will sing of your praise
Down in the depths
The ghosts of New Orleans
Here in my bed
Cities on fire
Waters arise
Cover my legs
All of my days
I will sing of your praise
Down in the depths
The ghosts of New Orleans
Chorus
La la.....
Arret, arret.
Arret de mer.
Mon Dieu etc
Pitié, Pitié
Pitié pour moi
Mon Dieu
Veuillez, Veuillez,
Veuillez, m'aider
Mon Dieu
Came from the south
Covered the 9th
Before moving north
Took many lives
Grande Ouragan
Where'd you come from, where you gone?
One more shot at life boy
One more shot at life
Tempete de vent
Un coup der mer
Hold on Maman, hold on Papa
All of my days
I will sing of your praise
Down in the depths
The ghosts of New Orleans
