[Verse 1]
FHe was a bouncer in a joint called Tony's Body Shop
She was a Bbnight cashier down at the Stop 'n' Shop
He was Fkinda good lookin', and she was kinda fun
They met 'neath that Cbig oak tree
Out where the Friver runs
[Chorus]
Little BbAngelyne, Little Angelyne
As the Fsun goes down and the moonlight shines
Back of a CGreyhound bus sit two lovers entwined
Just Big Bill and Little FAngelyne
[Verse 2]
FShe was just in from Texas, didn't know her way around
So he Bbtook her to a roadhouse on the edge of town
In the Fbeer hall light she looked so fine
And so he Cpopped the question that was on his mind
It was a sFimple affair, only a friend or two
Preacher Bbasked if they did, they said they do
She bought two Ftickets with her daddy's American Express
And hopped a CGreyhound bus in her Fwedding dress
[Chorus]
Little BbAngelyne, Little Angelyne
As the Fsun goes down and the moonlight shines
Back of a CGreyhound bus sit two lovers entwined
Just Big Bill and Little FAngelyne

        FN.C.
In a six dollar motel with the honey bun
             N.C.      
With seven glorious days in the Nevada sun
   N.C.
He played the tables, she pumped the slots full of dimes
     N.C.                        
They came back broke but they had a good time
Now maFny fell apart in the years come and gone
But Big BbBill and Little Angel they'd last on and on
ThFey held together when the times grew thin
A little Cboy that looked like her, and a girl that lFooked like him
[Chorus]
So Bbmister don't you pay it no mind
If the Fsun goes down and the moonlight shines
Back of a CGreyhound bus sit two lovers entwined
It’s Big Bill and Little AFngelyne
[Outro] 
Little BbAngelyne, Little Angelyne
As the Fsun goes down and the moonlight shines
Back of a CGreyhound bus sat two lovers entwined
Big, Big Bill and Little FAngelyne 
Little BbAngelyne, Little Angelyne
In the back of a GrCeyhound bus sit two lovers entwined 
It was Big Bill and Little AFngelyne
Little AnBbgelyne, Little Angelyne
As the sFun goes down and the moonlight shines
Back of a GrCeyhound bus sit two lovers entwined
It's just, Big, Big, Big Bill and LittlFe, oh, oh
Little ABbngelyne, Little Angelyne
As the sFun goes down and the moonlight shines
Back of a GrCeyhound bus sit two lovers entwined
It's just Big Bill and Little AnFgelyne

[Verse 1]

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

[Chorus]

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

[Verse 2]

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 beer hall 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

C F

And hopped a Greyhound bus in her wedding dress

[Chorus]

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

N.C.

In a six dollar motel with the honey bun

N.C.

With seven glorious days in the Nevada sun

N.C.

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

N.C.

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

C F

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

[Chorus]

So mister don't you pay it no mind

If the sun goes down and the moonlight shines

Back of a Greyhound bus sit two lovers entwined

It’s Big Bill and Little Angelyne

[Outro]

Little Angelyne, Little Angelyne

As the sun goes down and the moonlight shines

Back of a Greyhound bus sat two lovers entwined

Big, Big Bill and Little Angelyne

Little Angelyne, Little Angelyne

In the back of a Greyhound bus sit two lovers entwined

It was 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

It's just, Big, Big, Big Bill and Little, oh, oh

Little Angelyne, Little Angelyne

As the sun goes down and the moonlight shines

Back of a Greyhound bus sit two lovers entwined

It's just Big Bill and Little Angelyne
