Lirama

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

refrain:
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 jar 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.

refrain

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
