Born and raised in Oklahoma The Young man moved to Tennessee He started running with the devil Chasing that honky tonker's dream While at some dive outside of L.A. On life's highway headed southbound She was sent from up above And her true love turned his world around Chorus God bless angels and pray for outlaws To find a new found love for their lost cause Lord knows she loved him despite all his flaws And he loved her cause she made him wanna be a better man No there weren't no halo Above her beautiful brown hair And though he never saw her wings He always knew they were there Cause she had this way of knowing When he needed her the most It's like she had some kind of connection With the Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost. Chorus Lord knows it wasn't a cold day in hell Like everybody thought it would be Lord it was actually a beautiful July morning When he and that preacher man came walking up out of that creek Chorus
