About the song
I loved this song way back when, and wanted to rewrite a verse to make Evangeline actually do what her name implied
Lyrics
It was sometime after midnight
I was looking for a friend
My headlights lit her body by some pine trees on a bend
I slowed down right beside her
I turned the music down
She looked around then climbed inside
She didn't make a sound
Evangeline!
Well, soon we started talking
I asked her for her name
She said it's not important but I'll tell you anyway
My Mother loved the bayou
My Daddy worked the land
They named me after what they loved
So the world would understand
Evangeline!
She told me of the good news, that Jesus died for me. That on the cross he bled and died so that I could be set free. So I gave my heart to Jesus, I became a brand new man, because they named her after what they loved so that I could understand.
Evangeline!
I could not believe, she was gone when I returned
The forest's evening choruse was the only sound I heard
Now if you ever see her,
Be sure to say hello
Her levelled thumb may stop you if you're Westbound and alone
Evangeline!
