Angelina  Baker, lived just down the street
And  my my heart would set to achin’ every time we chanced to meet
Although  she’s now another’s, I still recall the time
When  my little Angie  swore that she’d  always be mine
Temper  of a fury, Irish born and bred
Skin  of cream and roses, and her hair was curly red
She  could sing just like a songbird, in a sweet magnolia June
And  she could play upon a young  man’s heart, like sawin’  on a fiddle tune
Well  the ocean is a mistress, once she gets in the veins
And  to live a life without her Lord, would drive a man insane
My  Angeline grew jealous, said it’s either her or me
And  she cursed my name in a last  farewell, as  I set out to sea
For  ten long years I terried, in every port of call
Tryin’  to forget that gal of mine, wouldn’t do no good at all
So  I went to beg her pardon, and make another start
Just  to find my Angeline  had died  of a broken heart
 (Verse progression)
 Note: (If you have a banjo player, strum each following note once while the banjo
 continues to play)
I’m  not much good for nothin’, my youth long passed away
But  if you hand me down my banjo son, I do believe I’ll play
Angelina  Baker
  Angeline I know
 I should’a  married Angeline  40 some-odd  years ago
Angelina  Baker…  Angeline  I know
 I should’a  married Angeline  40 some-odd  years ago
Angelina  Baker…  Angeline  I know
 I should’a  married Angeline  40 some-odd  years ago
 End with the verse progression.
