Angelique‐O Songtext
von Harry Belafonte

Angelique-O, Angelique-O
Your mama got to take you back
Angelique-O, Angelique-O
Teach you all the things you lack

Angelique-O, Angelique-O
Your mama got to take you back
Angelique-O, Angelique-O
Teach you all the things you lack

You never got time to sweep the dirt
Mama got to take you back
You never got time to wash a shirt
Mama got to take you back

You never got time to cut and peel
Your mama got to take you back
If think you can make it on sex appeal
Your mama got to take you back


Mama′s got to take you back
Teach you all the things you lack
When she sends you back to me
We'll live together in harmony

Angelique-O, Angelique-O
Your mama got to take you back
Angelique-O, Angelique-O
Teach you all the things you lack

Angelique-O, Angelique-O
Your mama got to take you back
Angelique-O, Angelique-O
Teach you all the things you lack

You never learnt how to make a stew
Your mama got to take you back
Your biscuits, Lord, I can hardly chew
Your mama got to take you back

The pants I′m wearing is full of hole
Your mama got to take you back
While you're runnin' around in a big mink stole
Mama got to take you back


Mama′s got to take you back
Teach you all the things you lack
When she sends you back to me
We′ll live together in harmony

Angelique-O, Angelique-O
Your mama got to take you back
Angelique-O, Angelique-O
Teach you all the things you lack

Angelique-O, Angelique-O
Your mama got to take you back
Angelique-O, Angelique-O
Teach you all the things you lack
