Lyrics Angelina - Harry Belafonte

Angelina, Angelina
Please bring down your concertina and play a welcome for me
'Cause I'll be comin' home from sea
I say, Angelina, Angelina
Please bring down your concertina and play a welcome for me
'Cause I'll be comin' home from sea

Yes, It's so long since I've been home
Seems like there's no place to roam
Well, I've sailed around the Horn
I've been from San Jose up to Baffin Bay, and I've rode out many a-storm, yes, ah

Angelina, Angelina
Please bring down your concertina and play a welcome for me
'Cause I'll be comin' home from sea, yo
Angelina, Angelina
Please bring down your concertina and play a welcome for me
'Cause I'll be comin' home from sea

Well, I've heard the bawdy tunes
I've been in honky-tonk saloons
I took my liquor by the VAT
Ah, well, I stayed on call for a rousin' brawl
Home was where I hung my hat, ho

Angelina, Angelina
Please bring down your concertina and play a welcome for me
'Cause I'll be comin' home from sea, yes, ah
Angelina, Angelina
Please bring down your concertina and play a welcome for me
'Cause I'll be comin' home from sea

Now I've courted many a girl
I've been in ports all around the world
But my ramblin' days are done
I've been from Curaçao up to Tokyo, and I've found there's only one

And she is Angelina, Angelina
Please bring down your concertina
And play a welcome for me 'cause I'll be comin' home from sea, yes, a-lordy
Angelina, Angelina
Please bring down your concertina
And play a welcome for me 'cause I'll be comin' home from sea, yes, ah

Ho!

It's so long since I've been home
Seems like there's no place to roam
Well, I've sailed around the Horn
I've been from San Jose up to Baffin Bay, and I've rode out many a-storm, yes, ah

Angelina, Angelina
Please bring down your concertina and play a welcome for me
'Cause I'll be comin' home from sea
(All together now)
Angelina, Angelina
Please bring down your concertina and play a welcome for me
'Cause I'll be comin' home from sea
(Once again now)

Angelina, Angelina
Please bring down your concertina and play a welcome for me
'Cause I'll be comin' home from sea
(A little softer)
Angelina, Angelina
Please bring down your concertina and play a welcome for me
'Cause I'll be comin' home from sea
(A little softer)

Angelina, Angelina
Please bring down your concertina and play a welcome for me
'Cause I'll be comin' home from sea
Angelina, Angelina
Please bring down your concertina and play a welcome for me
'Cause I'll be comin' home from sea
