Angelina - Shot of Love Outtake

Well, it's always been my nature to take chances

My right hand drawing back, while my left hand advances

Where the current is strong and the monkey dances

To the tune of a concertina

Blood dryin' in my yellow hair as I go from shore to shore

I know what it is that has drawn me to your door

But I don't know what it is that makes you think you've seen me before

Angelina

Oh, Angelina

Oh, Angelina

Her eyes were two slits, step would make any snake proud

With a face that any painter would paint, and she was well-endowed

Praising the dead as she rode a donkey through the crowd

Or was it a hyena?

Do I need your permission to turn my other cheek?

If you can read my thoughts, then, why must I speak?

No, I have heard nothing about the man that you seek

Angelina

Oh, Angelina

Oh, Angelina

In the valley of the giants, where the Stars and Stripes explode

The peaches, they were sweet and the milk and honey flowed

I was only following instructions, when the judge sent me down the road

With your subpoena

A peaceful exchange of ideas, for you was always too tame

In a travel, warfare was always more your style and your game

Your best friend and my best enemy is one and the same

Angelina

Oh (oh-oh), Angelina

Oh (oh-oh), Angelina

There's a black Mercedes rolling (oh-oh) through the combat zone

Your servants are half-dead, you're down to the bone

Tell me, tall men, where would you like to be overthrown?

In Jerusalem or Argentina?

She was stolen from her mother when she was three days old

Now her vengeance has been satisfied

And her strength cards are showin' gold

He's surrounded by God's angels, and she's wearin' a blindfold

And so are you, Angelina

Oh (oh-oh), Angelina

Oh (oh-oh), Angelina

I see pieces of men marching, trying to take Heaven by force

I can see the unknown rider, I can see the pale white horse

In God's truth name, tell me what you want, and you'll have it, of course

Just step into the arena

Beat a path of retreat up them spiral staircases

Pass the tree of smoke, pass the angel with four faces

Begging God for mercy and weepin' and moanin' in unholy places

Angelina

Oh (oh-oh), Angelina

Oh (oh-oh), Angelina

Oh-oh, Angelina

Oh-oh, Angelina
