I got a sweet little angel people
I love the way she spreads her wings
I got a sweet little angel
I love the way she spreads her wings
Now when she wraps her wings around me
I get joy in everything

I asked my baby for a nickel
She gave me a twenty dollar bill
Asked my baby for a nickel
She gave me a twenty dollar bill
I asked that woman for some whiskey
You know she gave me a whiskey stil

If my baby, she quit me
You know that I would die
If my baby, she quit me people
Yes I do believe that I would die
If you don't love me little angel
Tell me the reason why

Well, I got a sweet little angel people
Yes, I love the way she spreads her wings
I got a sweet little angel
Yes, I love the way she spreads her wings
Now when she wraps her wings around me
I get joy in everything
