If I Were An Angel Lyrics

They say I latched onto you
Like you was the last train leaving town
But you just kept on moving, boy
Left me here to live you down

Momma said she'd send a wire
And cried on the phone
Said, you'll always be my angel girl
Won't you come back home?

Well, if I was an angel I could fly over Jordan
And I wouldn't need no Greyhound to save my soul
But maybe that's a good thing 'cause I'll be home before I know
And if I was an angel I'd have a long way to go

So I got a job as a waitress
In some God forsaken place
Guess there's no choosing where you land
When you fall from grace

Well, I'm not sure what keeps me hereMatraca Berg - If I Were An Angel - http://motolyrics.com/matraca-berg/if-i-were-an-angel-lyrics.html
My shame or my fool pride
Well, neither one can give me wings
Or offer me a ride

Well, if I was an angel I could fly over Jordan
And I wouldn't need no Greyhound to save my soul
But maybe that's a good thing 'cause I'll be home before I know
And if I was an angel I'd have a long way to go

And oh, tonight I'll be dreaming
Of the cracks in the sidewalk
And a face through the window
Back to a place I belong

Well, if I was an angel I could fly over Jordan
And I wouldn't need no Greyhound to save my soul
But maybe that's a good thing 'cause I'll be home before I know
And if I was an angel I'd have a long way to go

Well, maybe that's a good thing 'cause I'll be home before I know
And if I was an angel I'd have a long way to go
