Blue Angel Lyrics

Mama never told you

How you were s'posed to treat a girl.

Papa never told you, now you're all alone 

Out in the world.

Sirens are screaming

Inside the winding-sheets are pale.

Devils are dreaming of a Blue Angel.

Now I lay me down to sleep

But troubled dreams are all I find.

Pray the lord my sould to keep.

Pray so I won't lose my mind.

Streetlights come streaming

On wings tonight I'll soon set sail

Devils are dreaming of the Blue Angel.

Your momma's going to take it hard

You always were your momma's boy

You're lying in the graveyard

Now you're not your momma's joy.

Silence is screaming

I'll bat an eye and cast my spell

Devils are dreaming of a Blue Angel.
