|
You've been out on the tiles, |
|
Winning the smiles of men of low persuasion, |
|
But I know you drink yourself crawling in the street until dawn, |
|
Girl you look like a bad dream, |
|
You've been places I've never been. |
|
Come home, come home Angeline. |
|
Come home, come home Angeline. |
|
You've been places I've never been. |
|
You took the small change from the job in the hall, |
|
Be back in an hour but you're not back at all. |
|
The children are crying, the flowers are dying, |
|
There's no food on the table, |
|
I don't think I'm able to cope, |
|
You've been places I've never been. |
|
Come home, come home Angeline. |
|
Come home, come home Angeline. |
|
You've been places I've never been. |
|
Cheap perfume and alcohol, dancing on tables, |
|
With kissing for strangers all laughing and howling, |
|
And jokes and tall tales that ain't funny at all, |
|
Bluffers and smugglers, boozers and gamblers, |
|
Jump old queens and tarts at the babbled bar. |
|
Oh, they've been pushing you too far. |
|
Come home, come home Angeline. |
|
Come home, come home Angeline. |
|
You've been places I've never been. |
|
Come home, come home Angeline. |
|
Come home, come home Angeline. |
|
You've been places I've never been. |
