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