(McNabb)
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!
We stopped just past the crossroads
She thanked me once again
I didn't wanna leave her but I drove on just the same
I thought about her story
Words whispered from her mouth
Her bauty and her innocence a credit to the South
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!
The Icicle Works were an English alternative rock band active during the 1980s. The band's name derives from the 1960 short story "The Day the Icicle Works Closed" by science fiction author Frederik Pohl. They joined Liverpool's early 1980s 'neo-psychedelia' wave, which also propelled Echo and the Bunnymen and The Teardrop Explodes to stardom. Their sound was characterized by catchy melodies, powerful guitar riffs and introspective lyrics. Their debut album, "The Icicle Works", released in 1980, received positive critical acclaim. Among their most well-known songs are "Birds Fly (Whisper to a Scream)", "Love Is the Law" and "Great Expectations". The band disbanded in the 1990s but had a significant impact on the British music scene of the 1980s.
