Mama Sweet - Angels and Devils Lyrics

Angels and Devils


One summer evening

On a back porch in Oklahoma

Thought about my short life

And the works of my hand



Then that same old feeling

For as long as I remember

Standing on the outside just trying to get in



Sometimes I feel low

Sometimes I feel down

But them angels and devils make sure that I’m always around


Thought about a lost love

In the hills out in Albuquerque

Oh, how the one did hurt me

But somehow I got by



Then I heard a whisper

On the winds that blew around me

Said I won’t live forever son

But I will never die



Sometimes I feel low

Sometimes I feel down

But them angels and devils make sure that I’m always around




I recall the wise man

On the banks of a muddy river

Passing me my wineskin on warm July day

Said son I’ve lived a hard one

But there’s one thing you must remember

It ain’t the road that will get you

It’s the stops along the way



Sometimes I feel low

Sometimes I feel down

But them angels and devils make sure that I’m always around
