GYPSY ANGELS

One day at a time
That's what they tell him every night
When he stops in to see his AA friends

But he's got demons he can't lose
Sometimes he thinks hell what's the use
They're probably gonna catch me in the end

He says damn this rain
Damn that war
Damn that girl who swore she loved me 
Just walked out that door

Sometimes this life
Is just too painful
Damn this whiskey 
And my gypsy angels

Well they're never there when he needs them
And wonders if he wonders if they see him 
Every time he takes another drink
And with each and every swallow 
He prays Jesus take this bottle and pour what's left of it down the sink

He says damn this rain
Damn that war
Damn that girl who swore she loved me just walked out that door
Sometimes this life is just too painful
Damn this whiskey and my gypsy angels

And he wonders if he's flying too fast
And he wonders if they gave up on him somewhere in his past
Did he lose them back there somewhere in the dust
If he just slows down maybe they'll catch up

INSTRUMENTAL BREAK

He says damn this rain
Damn that war
Damn that girl who swore she loved me just walked out that door
Sometimes this life is just too painful
Damn this whiskey and my gypsy angels

He said damn this rain
Damn that war 
Damn that girl who swore she loved me
Just walked out that door
Sometimes this life is just too painful
Damn this whiskey and my gypsy angels

Damn this whiskey and my gypsy angels
