Hell on an Angel

[Verse 1]
I felt those cold metal rings around my wrist when I was seventeen
Mama wondered where she went wrong when it came to raisin' me
I had a bottle and Bible, she said "There ain't no in-between"

[Chorus]
Well I was hell on an angel, that liquor burned like gasoline
I had one foot in the fire the other steppin' on her wings
Well that temperature was risin' but I could not feel the heat
Well I was hell on an angel that loved the devil out of me

[Verse 2]
Well she wanted her a bad boy with a heart as pure as gold
And I loved her to the end of the Earth, but I sure loved gettin' stoned
It was an early grave and prison for a family and a home (Yes it was)

[Chorus]
I was hell on an angel, that liquor burned like gasoline
I had one foot in the fire the other steppin' on her wing
Well that temperature was risin' but I could not feel the heat
Well I was hell on an angel that loved the devil out of me

[Chorus]
Well I was hell on an angel, that liquor burned like gasoline
I had one foot in the fire the other steppin' on her wings
Well that temperature was risin' but I could not feel the heat
Well I was hell on an angel that loved the devil out of me
I was hell on an angel that loved the devil out of me, Oh yeah
Oh yeah
