A Little Below the Angels

Alcohol was a friend of mine

It almost got me dead

I crashed some cars, got into fights

Some things I now regret

I've been told I've got nine lives

Or maybe even ten

Now I've changed my ways, my soul's restored

I'm better now than then

We're just a little below

A little lower than the angels

And that's alright

That's alright with me

Temptin'd fates, not what I want to do

I'll soon enough be dead

And all that glitters isn't always gold

You know I've heard it said

I've taken chances, I crossed the line

I lost my faith in love

Now the road is clear

My aim is true, with help from above

We're just a little below

A little lower than the angels

And that's alright

That's alright with me

We're just a little below

A little lower than the angels

And I can't fly

I won't fly away

You know I won't fly away

We got to find our own way

But I don't know if I'll make it to Heaven

Just open the gates of Hell

Daddy, have you ever seen an angel?

Sure baby

Well, what was it like?

The most beautiful thing I've ever seen

Just a little below

A little lower than the angels

And that's alright

That's alright with me

We're just a little below

A little lower than the angels

And I can't fly

I won't fly away

We're just a little below

A little lower than the angels

And that's alright

That's alright with me

We're just below

A little lower than the angels

And I can't fly

I won't fly away

We're just a little below

A little lower than the angels

And that's alright

That's alright with me

We're just a little below
