Berg Matraca - If I Were An Angel lyrics

They say I latched onto you

Like you was the last train leaving town

But you just kept on moving, boy

Left me here to live you down

Momma said she'd send a wire

And cried on the phone

Said, you'll always be my angel girl

Won't you come back home

Well, if I was an angel I could fly over Jordan

And I wouldn't need no Greyhound to save my soul

But maybe that's a good thing 'cause I'll be home before I know

And if I was an angel I'd have a long way to go

So I got a job as a waitress

In some God forsaken place

Guess there's no choosing where you land

When you fall from grace

Well, I'm not sure what keeps me here

My shame or my fool pride

Well, neither one can give me wings

Or offer me a ride

Well, if I was an angel I could fly over Jordan

And I wouldn't need no Greyhound to save my soul

But maybe that's a good thing 'cause I'll be home before I know

And if I was an angel I'd have a long way to go

And oh, tonight I'll be dreaming

Of the cracks in the sidewalk

And a face through the window

Back to a place I belong

And if I was an angel I could fly over Jordan

And I wouldn't need no Greyhound to save my soul

But maybe that's a good thing 'cause I'll be home before I know

And if I was an angel I'd have a long way to go

Well, maybe that's a good thing cause I'll be home before I know

And if I was an angel I'd have a long way to go
