Blue Angel

Your momma never told you
How you were 'sposed to treat a girl.
Your poppa never told you and
Now you're all alone out in the world.
Sirens are streaming
Inside the winding sheets are pale.
Devils are dreaming
Dreaming of the blue angel.

Now I lay me down to sleep
But troubled dreams are all I find.
Pray the Lord my soul to keep
Pray so I won't lose my mind.


Sirens are screaming
On wings tonight, I'll soon set sail.
Devils are dreaming
Dreaming of a blue angel.

Your momma's going to take it hard
You always were your momma's boy.
You're laying in the graveyard
Now you're not your momma's joy.

Streetlights come streaming
I'll bat an eye and cast my spell.
Devils are dreaming
Dreaming of a blue angel.
