Trouble With Angels

(album: Cody Hibbard - 2021)

Some people say they've seen one, some people don't believe
But I know for a fact I met one in a bar on Bourbon Street
Blonde haired halo wings that I know were hidden underneath that dress
One Friday night she took me 'bout as high as a man can get

Be careful when you find one flying too close to the ground
You can buy a drink for 'em, and they might let you hold 'em
But you sure can't hold 'em down
They'll take you up to heaven, but they're gonna keep you guessing
How long they're gonna stay
The trouble with angels, is angels fly away
Angels fly away

She left when I ask her if she fell from the sky
Said she knew was from Tulsa, but I knew that was a lie
Still wouldn't trade one single day she woke up in my bed
And I hate she's gone, but I should've known just trust what the good book says

Be careful when you find one flying too close to the ground
You can buy a drink for 'em, and they might let you hold 'em
But you sure can't hold 'em down
They'll take you up to heaven, but they're gonna keep you guessing
How long they're gonna stay
The trouble with angels, is angels fly away

Some people say they've seen one, some people don't believe
But I know for a fact I met one in a bar on Bourbon Street

Be careful when you find one flying too close to the ground
You can buy a drink for 'em, and they might let you hold 'em
But you sure can't hold 'em down
They'll take you up to heaven, but they're gonna keep you guessing
How long they're gonna stay
The trouble with angels, is angels fly away
Angels fly away
Angels fly away
