Walking all alone in the Southern rain By graveyards and battlefields that blood still stains Back to a time when the angels came Walking all alone in the Southern rain In the forests and the fields so many men were k**ed I can hear their cries still echo through these hills That was the time when the angels came Walking all alone in the Southern rain And the angels came down to the fallen men And they held their hands as they prayed for them They carried their souls beyond the moon and the sun All the way to heaven one by one The angels worked so hard for so many years To heaven and back again they shed so many tears They left no one and they placed no blame Walking all alone in the Southern rain And the angels came down to the fallen men And they held their hands as they prayed for them They carried their souls beyond the moon and the sun All the way to heaven one by one Walking all alone in the Southern rain Never healed them troubles never healed that pain But that was the time when the angels came Walking all alone in the Southern Rain Southern rain. Mmmmmmm Mmmmmmmm
