Angels & Mercy Lyrics

Hound dog moans as the sun's going down
Who will save my soul when it's crying out?
Devil's at my door, won't you leave me alone?
How long do I have to keep on running for?

Angels and mercy
Won't you let me inside?
Angels and mercy
Please, won't you teach me to fly?

An outlaw's life is filled with sorrow
All he has, he steals, begs, and borrows
Been down so long on this killing floor
How long do I have to keep on begging for?

Angels and mercy
Angels and mercy
Won't you let me inside?
Angels and mercy
Please, won't you teach me to fly?

O Lord, can you hear me
I'm on my knees
I'm down on my knees with my heart in my hand
I fear life has lost its meaning
Oh, lift me up
Will you lift me up and help me understand?

Devil's at my door
Won't you leave me alone?
How long do I have to keep on running for?

Angels and mercy
Angels and mercy
Won't you let me inside?
Angels and mercy
Please, won't you teach me to fly?

Oh, everything will be alright
Angels and mercy
Oh
Angels and mercy
Oh
Oh, oh
