Angels In Her Eyes, Devil In Her Grin
by David Kraai

Once upon a time, not so long ago
I had happiness like some folks will never know
But, in time, happiness changed her mind
And left me here to sing this lonesome rhyme

Oh yes
My heart she took
I guess I should have stopped
To take a look
She’s got the angels in her eyes
But the devil was in her grin

We went to the desert a-singin' country songs
Ended up drinking tequila and kissing all night long
But, in time, a bottle is bound to break
And now I’m left with nothing but a big ole heartache

Oh yes
My heart she took
I guess I should have stopped
To take a look
She’s got the angels in her eyes
But the devil was in her grin

There's no big plans left for her and me
No talk of little ones to fight with or to set free
But you can bet that she will have them soon
With some other joker while I’m left baying at the moon

Oh yes
My heart she took
I guess I should have stopped
To take a look
She’s got the angels in her eyes
But the devil was in her grin
