Nitty Gritty Dirt Band - Angelyne Lyrics

[Shawn]

He was a bouncer at a Jungle Pony's bodyshop

She was a night cashier down at the stop & shop

He was kinda good lookin' she was kinda fun

Down 'neath that big 'ol tree out where the river runs

Chorus... Little Angelyne, little Angelyne

As the sun goes down & the moonlght shines

Back of the greyhound bus sat two lovers entwined

Just big Bill & little Angelyne

She was just in from Texas didn't know her way around

So he took her to a roadhouse on the edge of town

There in the beer hall light Lord she looked real fine

It was there he popped the question that was on his mind

It was a simple ceremony just a friend or two

The preacher asked if they do & they said they do

She bought the tickets on her daddy's American Express

Bought the greyhound bus & a wedding dress

Chorus....

Chorus....

In a 6 dollar motel room with his honey bun

For 7 glorious days in the Nevada sun

He played the table, she pumped the slots full of dimes

They came back broke but they had a good time

Now many fell apart in the years come & gone

But Big Bill and little angel they last on & on

They held together when the times looked real slim

Had a boy looked like her & a girl looked like him

Chorus....

Chorus....

Chorus....

Chorus....
