This is an excellent song that just didn't get enough airplay. Can anybody
remember a girl like this. It draws an instant image in my mind.

She's been here workin all summer long
Pumping gas for the boats at the Copely Block
She's so brown from being in the sun all day
Boys from town hang around her paPA's place
Hey, you can see her at the boat dock
Walkin up the pier in her flip flops
Tying up lines to her tank top
Dipping for bait in the bait shop
Everyboy around would like to say that girl's mine
Summer's gonna end I know it
Oh were gonna miss you so
Wish you didn't have to go ..Evangeline
Verse2
Won't be long, she'll being going back to school
Going home, all the way to Baton Rouge
Her paPa, says he'll get along the best he can
And all the boys will be so brokenhearted again
Till the summer again
Repeat Chorus
Wish you didn't have to go Evangeline
+E7 x022130
*Breaks for leads are same as
*rythym is a cajun style playing bass notes than high notes in pairs of
two in alternating fashion
