Angel Of Sorrow
When that angel of sorrow steps up to my bedside,
And pulls the ribbon of darkness slowly 'cross my eyes,
Give me one last breath to tell my baby goodbye.
As that last clap of thunder grows faint and starts to die,
And those six black stallions come silent in the night,
Give me one last breath to tell my baby goodbye.
Dear Lord above,
I know you hear me up there.
I know it's late in life for my very first prayer.
I ain't here to ask for mercy for my own tormented soul,
Heaven or hell, Lord, I'm set to go... just
give me one last breath
to tell my baby goodbye.
I kneel down Lord,
But I won't hang my head in shame.
Right and wrong, in St. Peters book my scores about the same.
I ain't here to ask for penance,
I won't change my ways,
I'll take my chances come judgment day... just
give me one last breath
to tell my baby goodbye.
When I reach that misty river and times no longer on my side,
I'll set one foot on board and that oar man's set to ride,
One last breath,
To tell my baby goodbye.
And pulls the ribbon of darkness slowly 'cross my eyes,
Give me one last breath to tell my baby goodbye.
As that last clap of thunder grows faint and starts to die,
And those six black stallions come silent in the night,
Give me one last breath to tell my baby goodbye.
Dear Lord above,
I know you hear me up there.
I know it's late in life for my very first prayer.
I ain't here to ask for mercy for my own tormented soul,
Heaven or hell, Lord, I'm set to go... just
give me one last breath
to tell my baby goodbye.
I kneel down Lord,
But I won't hang my head in shame.
Right and wrong, in St. Peters book my scores about the same.
I ain't here to ask for penance,
I won't change my ways,
I'll take my chances come judgment day... just
give me one last breath
to tell my baby goodbye.
When I reach that misty river and times no longer on my side,
I'll set one foot on board and that oar man's set to ride,
One last breath,
To tell my baby goodbye.
