Angels & Outlaws Songtext
von Aaron Watson

Born and raised in Oklahoma
The young man moved to Tennessee
He started runnin′ with the devil
Chasin' that honky-tonker′s dream

Well, at some dive outside of L.A.
On life's highway headed southbound
She was sent from up above
And her true love turned his world around

God bless angels and pray for outlaws
To find a new found love for their lost cause
Lord knows she loved him despite all his flaws
And he loved her 'cause she made him wanna be a better man


No, there weren′t no halo above her beautiful brown hair
No, he never saw her wings
He always knew that they were there
Lord, she had this way of knowin′ when he needed her the most
It's like she had some kind of connection
With the Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost

God bless angels and pray for outlaws
To find a new found love for their lost cause
Lord knows she loved him despite all his flaws
And he loved her ′cause she made him wanna be a better man

Lord knows it wasn't a cold day in hell
Like everybody thought it would be
Lord, it was actually a beautiful July morning
When he and that preacher man came walkin′
Up out of that creek

God bless angels and pray for outlaws
To find a new found love for their lost cause
Lord knows she loved him despite all his flaws
And he loved her 'cause she made him wanna be a better man

Lord knows she loved him ′cause she made him wanna be a better man
And he was
