Lyrics
Stubborn Angel
she looks like she's 21 but she just got started
nurses a glass of passion with both hands
he stirs up a little trouble, they were too tired to explain
she don't complain, she's just a stubborn angel
he called to say he loved her
a half day out of abilene
said he'd call again at the arkansas line
she likes her comfort cold, her fidelity peppered hot
there's no halfway, she's just a stubborn angel
she never learned to fly
so you won't see her flying by
and she won't treat you bad
even if you try
named their first girl dallas, it'd always been a dream of his
middle name for her late momma, sweet adaline
he's fearless when he's holding her, but lets go when he's not
her heart don't break, she's just a stubborn angel
she feels it's the weak who fly
you can see it in her eyes
she can't make you mad
even if you try
she never learned to fly...
as the calm remains
she's just a stubborn angel
with wings for grace
she's just a stubborn angel
