Fallen AngelEmIt was me and it was autumn, it was early in the morn, G Em I stumbled on a fallen angel in the corn. In the corn. ummhmm Covered in cream and her flirtation lying hidden in the rows making me scream, Mother Nature you're covered and cold. Covered and cold. umhm The fallen angel was a baby, asked me what's gonna happen to him. I said, You'll stay here if you're lucky or you'll go back in. Go back in. ummhmm He said, If I stay will you dig me hole? Will I dig you a hole? I said, I will. Today must be holy. I got plenty of time to kill. Plenty of time to kill. ummhmm With his hardly open eyes he then spoke without a tongue. He said, Then bury me, bury me, bury me young. Bury me young. ummhmm So I sank down to my knees and I opened up the ground for that little fallen angel I had found. I had found. ummhmm And with dirt under my nails and by the trails he pressed, in the corn, in the mornin', I confessed. I confessed. ummhmm yes. Now all is said and done. All is laid to rest. |
