dick feller - angel wings lyrics
[verse 1]
driving down the highway one fine day
foot a little heavy on the gas
i paid no mind to the yellow line
when i pulled out to pass
then when i got to the top of the hill
well lordy, what did i see?
it was a trailer truck with a semi+driver
and he’s a+headin’ right straight for me
[chorus]
and i thought i heard the flutter of angel wings
coming forward to carry me home
thought i heard the sound of heavenly strings
coming forward, sing me home
lord, you are a friend of mine
don’t cut me down while i’m in my prime
i’d rather take my own sweet time
before the flutter of the angel wings
[verse 2]
down at the pool hall, line up an 8+ball
with some friends of mine
when this torpedo went from toledo
said “wanna shoot a game of nine?”
blocked out him, tried to move the cue
and i said: you could get hurt
then he whipped out a razor and cut off my tie
and two b+ttons off my shirt
[chorus]
and i thought i heard the flutter of angel wings
coming forward to carry me home
thought i heard the sound of heavenly strings
coming forward, sing me home
lord, you are a friend of mine
don’t cut me down while i’m in my prime
i’d rather wait for another time
for the flutter of the angel wings
[verse 3]
well, you just can’t beat that old grim reaper
but i’d sure like to try
but those i know that left this world
not one got out alive
i’d like to pass through the pearly gates
but i am just a little bit shy
yes, i sure do wanna see heaven
but i sure as h+ll don’t wanna die
[chorus]
’cause i don’t need the flutter of angel wings
coming forward to carry me home
i don’t need the sound of the heavenly strings
coming forward, to sing me home
lord, you’re still a good friend of mine
don’t cut me down while i’m in my prime
i’d rather take my own sweet time
before the flutter of the angel wings
[outro]
flutter of the angel wings
until the road is called up yonder
i’d rather just wait right here
