Yonder Mountain String Band - Angel lyrics

If ever I need you dear I find your love is gone Sign on the dotted line And try to take it home I left my lamp a-burning I left the front door open wide No sleep come the morning Wore it out with the tears I cried Chorus: Are you gonna be my angel? The Devil's never gonna let me save my poor soul [ Chorus (x2) ] Shovel that shines like silver Digs a hole in the ground The gold ring that I gave you I found it laying 'round The hole ate up my mind The hole ate up my heart Your name's still on my lips When I whisper in the dark [ Chorus (x4) ]
