I walked a straight line
I did the right things
I went to work, went to church
Did the time thing
Slept in my own bed
Didn’t have no long nights
I hadn’t let him in my head for a long time
He started whisperin’
I started listenin’
Damn, he started making sense
So, I drove my truck out of gas
I drank the bar out of beer
Emptied my pocket of cash
Trying to make you disappear
I found a new pair of blues
Thought they’d put you in the past
Everything he told me to do, girl it ain’t doing jack
God made a hell of an angel when he made you
Even the devil on my shoulder don’t know what to do
If you had a different smile
If you had a different kiss
If you were anybody else, then I could forget
The way you said my name
The way you pulled me close
It shouldn’t be this hard for me to try to let you go
I drove my truck out of gas
I drank the bar out of beer
Emptied my pocket of cash
Trying to make you disappear
I found a new pair of blues
Thought they’d put you in the past
Everything he told me to do, girl it ain’t doing jack
God made a hell of an angel when he made you
Even the devil on my shoulder don’t know what to do
I drove my truck out of gas
I drank the bar out of beer
Emptied my pocket of cash
Trying to make you disappear
I found a new pair of blues
Thought they’d put you in the past
Everything he told me to do, girl it ain’t doing jack
God made a hell of an angel when he made you
Even the devil on my shoulder don’t know what to do
Hell of an angel
Hell of an angel
Hell of an angel
Hell of an angel
Hell of an angel
Hell of an angel
Hell of an angel
Hell of an angel
