LYRICS

Sweet silver angels over the sea
Please come down flyin' low for me
One time I trusted a stranger

Cuz I heard his sweet song

And it was gently enticin' me

Tho there was somethin' wrong,

But when I turned he was gone.



Blindin' me, his song remains remindin' me,

He's a bandit and a heart breaker,

Oh, but Jesus was a cross maker.



Sweet silver angels over the sea

Please come down flyin' low for me



He wages war with the devil

A pistol by his side

And tho he chases him out windows

And won't give him a place to hide,

He keeps his door open wide



Fightin' him he lights a lamp invitin' him,

He's a bandit and a heart breaker,

Oh, but Jesus was a cross maker



Sweet silver angels over the sea

Please come down flyin' low for me



I heard the thunder come rumblin'

The light never looked so dim

I see the junction git nearer'

And danger is in the wind

And either road's lookin' grim



Hidin' me, I flee, desire dividin' me,

He's a bandit and a heart breaker.

Oh, but Jesus was a cross maker

Yes, Jesus was a cross maker

Sweet silver angels over the sea

Please come down flyin' low for me

One time I trusted a stranger

Cuz I heard his sweet song

And it was gently enticin' me

Tho there was somethin' wrong

But when I turned he was gone

Blindin' me, his song remains remindin' me,

He's a bandit and a heart breaker,

Oh, but Jesus was a cross maker.



Sweet silver angels over the sea

Please come down flyin' low for me
