SHE SAID I'VE BEEN
UP ALL NIGHT
AND HALF-SCARED
TO DEATH
I CAN SMELL THE LIQUOR
ON YOUR BREATH
I PAID FOR YOUR REHAB
WITH MY I.R.A.
BOY YOUR DADDY'D BE
TURNIN' IN HIS GRAVE
SHE SAID SON I'VE DONE
ALL A MAMA CAN DO
I CAN SAVE MYSELF
BUT I CAN'T SAVE YOU
HE SAID I WISH THAT
YOU AND JESUS
WOULD GET OFF OF
MY BACK
THEY SAID HIS TRUCK
WAS DOIN' NINETY
WHEN HE CRASHED
I BET IT GETS SO QUIET
IN HEAVEN SOMETIMES
EVEN GOD CRIES
WHEN AN ANGEL'S
HANDS ARE TIED
THEY SAID HONEY
GROWN-UPS
DO THIS ALL THE TIME
AND TEARS WELLED UP
IN THE LITTLE GIRL'S EYES
THEY SAID NOW IT'S NOT
SOMETHIN'
THAT YOU'VE DONE
IT'S JUST THAT MOMMY
AND DADDY
DON'T GET ALONG
SHE SAID
DO YOU GUYS MEAN
THAT YOU NEED
A TIME OUT
AND THAT DADDY'S
GONNA MOVE TO
A DIFFERENT HOUSE
THEY SAID YOU'LL HAVE
TWO BEDROOMS
YOU'RE A LUCKY KID
SHE SAID
WELL WHAT ABOUT
CHECKERS
WHERE'S HE GONNA LIVE
I BET IT GETS SO QUIET
IN HEAVEN SOMETIMES
EVEN GOD CRIES
WHEN AN ANGEL'S
HANDS ARE TIED
4 BAR
BREAK
SHE PRAYS
ANGELS WATCH ME
THROUGH THE NIGHT
STAY BY MY SIDE
'TIL MORNIN' LIGHT
GOD BLESS MAMA
GOD BLESS DADDY
KEEP US TOGETHER
AND HAPPY
I BET IT GETS SO QUIET
IN HEAVEN SOMETIMES
EVEN GOD
CRIES
WHEN AN ANGEL'S
HANDS ARE TIED
