Billy Cobb Angel Lyrics

[Chorus:]
Girl, you're my angel, you're my darling angel
Closer than my peeps you are to me, baby
Shorty, you're my angel, you're my darling angel
Girl, you're my friend when I'm in need, lady

[Refrain:]
Life is one big party when you're still young
But who's gonna have your back when it's all done?
It's all good when you're little, you have pure fun
Can't be a fool, son, what about the long run?
Looking back, Shorty always a-mention
Said me not giving her much attention
She was there through my incarceration
I wanna show the nation my appreciation

[Chorus:]
Girl, you're my angel, you're my darling angel
Closer than my peeps you are to me, baby
Shorty, you're my angel, you're my darling angel
Girl, you're my friend when I'm in need, lady

[Verse:]
You're a queen, and so you should be treated (Some people call me a space cowboy)
Though you never get the lovin' that you needed
Could have left, but I called and you heeded (Some call me the gangsta of love)
Begged and I pleaded, mission completed (Some people call me Maurice)
Mama said that I and I dissed the program ('Cause I speak of the pompatus of love)
Not the type to mess around with your emotion
But the feeling that I have for you is so strong
Been together so long, and this could never be wrong

[Chorus:]
Girl, you're my angel, you're my darling angel ('Cause I'm a picker, I'm a grinner, I'm a lover and I'm a sinner)
Closer than my peeps you are to me, baby (I play my music in the sun)
Shorty, you're my angel, you're my darling angel (I sure don't want to hurt no one)
Girl, you're my friend when I'm in need, lady

[Bridge:]
Girl, in spite of my behavior, say I'm your savior
You must be sent from up above
And you appear to me so tender, say girl, I surrender
Thanks for giving me your love
Girl, in spite of my behavior, well, you are my savior
You must be sent from up above And you appear to me so tender, well, girl, I surrender
Said thanks for giving me your love

[Refrain:]
Now life is one big party when you're still young (I'm me, me be, goddamn, I am)
And who's gonna have your back when it's all done? (Oh no, it go, it gone, bye-bye)
It's all good when you're little, you have pure fun
Can't be a fool, son, what about the long run?
Looking back, Shorty always a-mention (Who I? I think, I sink, and I die)
Said me not giving her much attention
She was there through my incarceration
I wanna show the nation my appreciation

[Chorus:]
Girl, you're my angel, you're my darling angel (If you want to destroy my sweater)
Closer than my peeps you are to me, baby (Hold this thread as I walk away)
Shorty, you're my angel, you're my darling angel (Watch me unravel, I'll soon be naked)
Girl, you're my friend when I'm in need, lady (Lying on the floor, lying on the floor, I've come undone)
Girl, you're my angel, you're my darling angel (If you want to destroy my sweater) ('Cause I'm a picker, I'm a grinner, I'm a lover and I'm a sinner)
Closer than my peeps you are to me, baby (Hold this thread as I walk away) (I play my music in the sun)
Girl, you're my angel, you're my darling angel (Lying on the floor, lying on the floor, I've come undone) (I sure don't want to hurt no one)
Girl, you're my angel, you're my darling angel (If you want to destroy my sweater) ('Cause I'm a picker, I'm a grinner, I'm a lover and I'm a sinner)
Closer than my peeps you are to me, baby (Hold this thread as I walk away) (I play my music in the sun)
Girl, you're my angel, you're my darling angel (Lying on the floor, lying on the floor, I've come undone) (I sure don't want to hurt no one)
Closer than my peeps you are to me, baby
Shorty, you're my angel, you're my darling angel
Girl, you're my friend when I'm in need, baby
