My first name--Angelene
Prettiest mess you ever seen
Love for money is my sin
Any man calls, I'll let him in
Rose is my colour, and white
Pretty mouth--green my eyes
I see men come and go
But there'll be one who will collect my soul and come to me
Two-thousand miles away
He walks upon the coast
Two-thousand miles away
It lays open like a road
Dear God, life ain't kind
People gettin' born and dyin'
But I've heard there's joy untold
It lays open like a road in front of me
Two-thousand miles away
He walks upon the coast
Two-thousand miles away
Lays open like a road
It seems so far away
I see men come and go
Two-thousand miles until
I reach that open road
My first name's Angelene...
