"Sister Evangeline" lyrics

"Sister Evangeline"

Sister Evangeline is sweet on me
And she and I both know I'm pledged towards celibacy
And I'll keep thinking of her
And she'll keep touching herself
And we'll both die of guilt
And we'll both die of guilt

Four days now I've tried
Four days now I've tried
Sister Evangeline won't talk to me
I heard she moved away
And had my baby
And she'll keep running from me
And I'll keep touching myself
And we'll all die of guilt
And we'll all die of guilt

Oh and Sister Evangeline
You know He is a part of me
And every night I sing songs for Him to find
Oh and Sister Evangeline
I am trying to make a family
But you keep moving so far away from me

Oh and Sister Evangeline
You know He is a part of me
And every night I sing songs for Him to find
Oh and Sister Evangeline
I am trying to make a family
But you keep moving so far away from me
