Seven Spanish Angels Songtext
von Troy Cassar-Daley & Adam Harvey

He looked down into her brown eyes and said, "Say a prayer for me"
She threw her arms around him, whispered, "God will keep us free"
They could hear the riders coming, he said, "This is my last fight
You can take me back to Texas, you won′t take me back alive"

There were seven Spanish angels at the altar of the sun
They were praying for the lovers in the valley of the gun
When the battle stopped and the smoke cleared
There was thunder from the throne
And seven Spanish angels took another angel home


She reached down and picked the gun up that lay smokin' in his hand
Whispered, "Father, please forgive me, I can′t make it without my man"
And she knew the gun was empty, and she knew she could not win
Her final prayer was answered when the rifles fired again

And there were seven Spanish angels at the altar of the sun
They were praying for the lovers in the valley of the gun
When the battle stopped and the smoke cleared
There was thunder from the throne
And seven Spanish angels took another angel home

There were seven Spanish angels at the altar of the sun
They were praying for the lovers in the valley of the gun
When the battle stopped and the smoke cleared
There was thunder from the throne
And seven Spanish angels took another angel home
Seven Spanish angels took another angel home
