 Her father was a baker, his name was Uncle  Sam;

G                                   C        G

 And I remember Angeline, no matter  where I  am.

G                                                       C

 She said she couldn't do hard work because she was not  stout;

G                                                C       G

 She made the biscuits ev'ry day and poured that  coffee  out.

G                                            C     G

 It was the color of the sky before the rain  came  down.

 Sixteen horses in my pack, the leader he was  blind;
