Every Angel In Heaven (2023 Remastered Version)

Carried what I could out of Memphis

Can't go back to Tennessee

Worked the day and I knew I was through

On a farm in the Shenandoah Valley

And Atlanta got too crowded

So I crept out without a sound

I was drunk and I can't remember

Even New Orleans ran me out of town

So I tried to settle down one summer

But from love I fell from grace

High on a in that cold November

I thought I'd disappear without a trace

And then I saw every Angel in Heaven

I saw them drеssed as white as light

And then all of my dеspair I could see them standing there

To help me through that lonely night

Help me through that lonely night

Spent some time in a Texas prison

The man said he wanted my life

He thought I'd cheated him so he came at me

With a gun but I had a knife

When I got out I kept on wanderin'

Texas was no place to be

The man had killed and lots of family there

And all of them were trying to find me

And then I saw every Angel in Heaven

I saw them dressed as white as light

And then all of my despair I could see them standing there

To help me through that lonely night

Help me through that lonely night

Every time I find myself at the end of my rope

There's a noose waiting for me to be hung

And when I get the mind I put it over my head

The Angels always seem to come

The Angels always seem to come

I was standing on the platform

Found a ticket on the ground

Don't matter where it takes me

Anywhere is somewhere bound

I was crushing out my last smoke

As the train pulled in on time

The conductor waved his lantern

As a bell began to chime

And then I saw every Angel in Heaven

I saw them dressed as white as light

And then all of my despair I could see them standing there

To help me through this lonely night

Help me through this lonely night

Help me through this lonely night

Help me through this lonely night
