Oh...... Angelina, Oh....... Angelina
She's a woman so fine gotta make her all mine
Oh...... Angelina, Oh.......
Oh yeah, she'll turn me around, knock me down to the ground
But I'll get back on my feet again
She glides when she walks people hush when she talks
And they smile when she passes by
And your heart skips a beat as she walks down the street
and she leaves you kinda feelin' high
She looks so debonair
When she runs her fingers through her hair
Words could never express how she's wearin' that dress
Just a look's enough to drive me wild
Oh...... Angelina, Oh....... Angelina
She's a woman so fine gotta make her all mine
Oh...... Angelina, Oh.......
Oh yeah, she'll turn me around, knock me down to the ground
But I'll get back on my feet again
Well I plucked up the guile an' it took me a while
To ask if she would be my date
But she's with some other Joe she don't wanna let go
But I won't let it seal my fate
I dream a perfect moment of bliss
When I'll feel the tenderness of her kiss
So I'll ask her again and again and again
Oh man, she really drives me wild!
Oh...... Angelina, Oh....... Angelina
She's a woman so fine gotta make her all mine
Oh...... Angelina, Oh.......
Oh yeah, she'll turn me around, knock me down to the ground
But I'll get back on my feet again
I been down, rejected
But I'll keep tryin'
'Coz folks always say Rome wasn't built in a day
Well some wars are won by the bullet and gun
And a shedload o' naked ambition
But I'll win this one clean if you know what I mean
By a simple war of attrition
For that perfect moment of bliss
When I'll feel the tenderness of her kiss
So I'll ask her again and again and again
Though I know it's gonna drive her wild
Oh...... Angelina, Oh....... Angelina
She's a woman so fine gotta make her all mine
Oh...... Angelina, Oh.......
Oh yeah, she'll turn me around, knock me down to the ground
But I'll get back on my feet again
