Angeline the Baker (feat. Geoff Lakeman)

Angeline the baker, oh Angeline I know,
I should've married Angeline, oh many years ago.

Angeline is?, and Angeline is stout,
And every day she bakes the bread and rolls the biscuits out,
Oh Angeline the baker, oh Angeline I know,
I should've married Angeline, oh many years ago.

The last time that I saw her was at a country fair,
Her father chased me almost home and told me to stay there,
Oh Angeline the baker, oh Angeline I know,
I should've married Angeline, oh many years ago.

I bought her a brand new dress, neither black nor brown,
It was the colour of a stormy sky before the rain comes down,
She was sent away one day, sold by Uncle Sam,
I never will forget her, no matter where I am,
Oh Angeline the baker, oh Angeline I know,
I should've married Angeline, oh many years ago.

Angeline the baker would now be 43,
And it's been over 20 years since she said she'd marry me,
There's 16 horses in my team, the leader he was blind,
I dreamed that I was dying and I saw my Angeline,
Oh Angeline the baker, oh Angeline I know,
I should've married Angeline, oh many years ago,
Oh Angeline the baker, oh Angeline I know,
I should've married Angeline, oh many years ago,
I should've married Angeline, oh many years ago.
