tami neilson - red dirt angel lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
she was a child of the georgia moon
born with hungry eyes
mama left her in a cotton field
and daddy disappeared into the night
and the next day
they found that baby girl screamin’ with all her might
the one thing that her mama taught her
was how to survive

[verse 2]
she was [?], didn’t have a last name
moved from town to town
the kids would laugh at her red dirt clothes
call her names and push her to the ground
she’d hide behind
the seats of the movie house every sat-rday
and watch the celebrities on the silver screen
take her far away

[chorus 1]
red dirt angel, they say you’re no good
don’t want no georgia white-trash in this neighbourhood
but red dirt angel always knew inside
she’d spread her red dirt wings and fly

[verse 3]
she ran away at 17
worked her way to hollywood
waited tables in texas towns
folded laundry in a californian neighbourhood
the years went by
she didn’t stop to cry
’cause she didn’t have the time
’cause in this town you never know who’s watchin’
to see how bright you shine

[chorus 1]
red dirt angel, they say you’re no good
don’t want no georgia white-trash in this neighbourhood
but red dirt angel always knew inside
she’d spread her red dirt wings

[bridge]
now back in georgia in that old movie house
smiling down for the world to see, yeah
is a beautiful red dirt angel up on the silver screen

[chorus 2]
red dirt angel, you knew you’d do good
you showed them all just what can come from that neighbourhood
’cause red dirt angel always knew inside
she’d spread her red dirt wings and fly
yes, she’d spread her red dirt wings and fly
