She's been here working all summer long Pumpin' gas for the boats on the cote blanche She's so brown, from being in the sun all day The boys from town, hang around her pa-paw's place And they all say
Hey you can see her down at the boat dock Walking up the pier in her flip-flops Tying up the lines in her tank top Dipping out the bait at the bait shop Every boy around would love to say, That girl's mine Summer's gonna end I know Oh, we gonna miss you so Wish you didn't have to go, Evangeline
Won't be long, she'll be going back to school Going home, all the way to Baton Rouge Her pa-paw says he'll get along the best he can And all the boys will be so brokenhearted then 'Til it's summer again
Then you can see her down at the boat dock Walking up the pier in her flip-flops Tying up the lines in her tank top Dipping out the bait at the bait shop Every boy around would love to say, That girl's mine Summer's gonna end I know Oh, we gonna miss you so Wish you didn't have to go, Evangeline
