He was a bouncer in a joint called Tony's Body Shop

She was a night cashier down at the Stop 'n' Shop

He was kinda good-lookin'

And she was kinda fun

They met 'neath that big oak tree

Out where the river runs



Little Angelyne, little Angelyne

As the sun goes down and the moonlight shines

Back of a greyhound bus sit two lovers entwined

Just Big Bill and little Angelyne



She was just in from Texas, didn't know her way around

So he took her to a roadhouse on the edge of town

In the beerhall light she looked so fine

And so he popped the question that was on his mind

                 

It was a simple affair, only a friend or two

Preacher asked if they did, they said they do

She bought two tickets with her Daddy's American Express

And hopped a greyhound bus in her wedding dress



Little Angelyne, little Angelyne

As the sun goes down and the moonlight shines

Back of a greyhound bus sit two lovers entwined

Just Big Bill and little Angelyne



In a six dollar motel with the honey bun

With seven glorious days in the Nevada sun

He played the tables, she pumped the slots full of dimes

They came back broke but they had a good time



Now many fell apart in the years come and gone

But Big Bill and little Angel they'd last on and on

They held together when the times grew thin

A little boy that looked like her, and a girl that looked like him



So mister don't you pay it no mind

Let the sun go down and the moonlight shine

Back of a greyhound bus sit two lovers entwined

Just Big Bill and little Angelyne



Little Angelyne, little Angelyne

As the sun goes down and the moonlight shines

Back of a greyhound bus sit two lovers entwined

Just Big Bill and little Angelyne



Little Angelyne, little Angelyne

As the sun goes down and the moonlight shines

Back of a greyhound bus sit two lovers entwined

Just Big Bill and little Angelyne
