Mark Knopfler - Creole Angel lyrics

Bottle rocket combo got a corner on the crowd

Under her old balcony above a bar called

The Black Cat Prowl

Setts off memories how she laughed every time

I'd break her silence with a piece of my mind

A callin'

Creole Angel come on down

Pray tell are you ready now?

Dusty saint on the dashboard

Will bless the berth of my old Ford

Creole Angel Northbound

Even now I hear the sound

Of open arms like wings apart

Taking off with a jump start

Creole Angel my Creole Angel

Jump start baby

It's a jet stream of conscious

Out of body tale

Through the Natchez Trace

Like a vapor trail

We saw the steam rise and the Mercury fall

Between New Orleans and Old Montreal

I remember

Creole Angel come on down

Pray tell are you ready now?

Dusty saint on the dashboard

Will bless the berth of my old Ford

Creole Angel Northbound

Even now I hear the sound

Of open arms like wings apart

Taking off with a jump start

Creole Angel my Creole Angel
