Lyrics
Ol' Lady and The Angel
Hey -- Ol' La--dy, I've been watchin' you
I see how you take it, I see all you do
Rest a little longer, folded in my wing
My feathers soft and warm, listen while I sing
Stand up, I say the seeds are sewn
It's time to wake up, you're not alone
Stand up, I say you know who you are
I love you like the devil, you've come so far
Hey, Sweet Angel, thanks for stoppin' by
I wish that you could stay, I know you've got to fly
I want to keep tryin' tired as I am
I love this place, I do give a dam
