Well, I found me a woman I've always wanted one day
She was married to a preacher who never did teach her his way
And when she heard him preach the book of John
She must have thought he's putting her on
‘Cause every Sunday night she always came to me
Oh, dear god, I've fallen for a fallen angel
There's no earthly way I can get to heaven now
Oh, dear god, I've fallen for a fallen angel
Oh yes, I'm fallen as far as I can
Well, we got out of town started making the rounds
My angel's loving and drinking never knew any bounds
We hit the road when the law got tight
We slept by the road at night
Dreaming of all those good times down the way
Oh, dear god, I've fallen for a fallen angel
There's no earthly way I can get to heaven now
Oh, dear god, I've fallen for a fallen angel
Oh yes, I'm fallen as far as I can
Now late one night I was dealing in a pokergame
When a man got me cheating and he pulled a gun cursing my name
My angel jumped in front of me
The fool did hit her as she fell on me
And then she died, fallen on the floor
Oh, dear god, I've fallen for a fallen angel
There's no earthly way I can get to heaven now
Oh, dear god, I've fallen for a fallen angel
Oh yes, I'm fallen as far as I can
Oh, dear god, I've fallen for a fallen angel
There's no earthly way I can get to heaven now
Oh, dear god, I've fallen for a fallen angel
Oh yes, I'm fallen as far as I can
