Angels in Alabama - Murphy Elmore

Angels in Alabama Lyrics

They broke out the news
and i broke into a bottle of whiskey
with every intention of drowning my pain
i was hell bent, damn determined
i wouldn't let anyone see
these tears rollin down my face
but then i heard her voice
the lump grew in my throat so big
man i lost the strength to talk
and she said son its gonna be okay
and right there i lost control
cause she's the reason i believe in miracles
the strongest woman that i know
a fighter like no other
let me tell you brother
she's what makes this house a home
she's the one that taught me to walk by faith

had me sitting in that front row
every Sunday morning, sunny or storming
it didn't matter yeah she's
the reason i believe in angles in Alabama
well i put that bottle away and
got down on my knees
me and god had a heart to heart
i said i know we ain't talked in a while
but i'm begging you please cause
seeing her like this lord its tearing me apart
cause she's the reason i believe in miracles
the strongest woman that i know
a fighter like no other
let me tell you brother
she's what makes this house a home
she's the one that taught me to walk by faith
had me sitting in that front row
every Sunday morning, sunny or storming
it didnt matter yeah shes
the reason i believe in angles in Alabama
the doctor tells me she's got her gloves on
and that she's ready for this fight
and i say man i know thats true
she's been fighting her whole life
she's the reason i believe in miracles
the strongest woman that i know
a fighter like no other
let me tell you brother
she's what makes this house a home
she's the one that taught me to walk by faith
had me sitting in that front row
every Sunday morning, sunny or storming
it didnt matter yeah shes
the reason i believe in angles in Alabama
angels in Alabama
I could show you an angel in Alabama
an angel in Alabama
she's my angel in Alabama
they broke out the news and I broke into a bottle of whiskey
