Angels and Devils
There is this girl I know
 Lived way out in the sticks
 Had a way with every Jim, Billy, Bob, or Joe
 Got herself in quite a fix
 
 She fell in love with an angel one day
 Clung to him with all her might
 But she couldn't get him to stay
 And he left her one night
 
 She cried and cried, and cried some more
 Then she did a horrible thing
 She opened her heart's door
 And invited in an old fling
 
 She giggled and laughed and remained a whore
 Dying more inside each day
 Til one day she couldn't take it anymore
 She retreated and shoved everyone away
 
 Days passed, silent she stayed
 Til one day her angel caressed her face
 Her tears fell, much delayed
 He held her in his comforting embrace
 
 Her mistakes flashed through her mind
 She cried harder yet
 She had left everyone behind
 Hoping they'd all forget
 
 Her angel stayed with her
 Warming her heart
 Old feelings inside her he began to stir
 But he couldn't give himself wholly, only part
 
 She trudged from day to day
 Waiting on time to speed
 A lesson she learned, though, the hard way
 She's the Devil's playtoy, he's always in the lead
 
 There's this girl I knew
 Who gave her heart and body away
 So she got torn in two
 Asking both an Angel and Devil out to play
 
 One day she bartered with Fate
 Drove a knife through her chest
 She now lies in a cold, cruel crate
 Her heart no longer beats in her breast
 
 There's a lesson to be learned here, dears
 Your life is your own
 Don't give in to your fears
 Or you'll find yourself in front of the Devil's throne
