Angel Cake and Wine Songtext
von Glenn Yarbrough

I once had a dog
With one torn ear;
The color of the dust
That blew me here.
The color of the dust;
Or a good luck penny
But he went off
And I didn′t have any dog

Angel cake and wi-i-i-i-ine,
Angel cake and wi-i-i-ine
I was born to dine
On angel cake and wine
But nothin' ever shines on me


When I was born
The wind blew hard
Dust piled high
′Round my mamma's door
Angel cake and wi-i-i-i-ine,
Angel cake and wi-i-i-ine
I was born to dine
On angel cake and wine
But nothin' ever shines on me.

My woman bent
Like a tree in the wind;
Bent her shiny leaves
To other men
Angel cake and wi-i-i-i-i-ine,
Angel cake and wi-i-i-ine
I was born to dine
On angel cake and wine
But nothin′ ever shines on me.

Nothin′ ever shines
On me
