The Hinterland Band - Angel's Arms

You take the tall guard with the big mustache
Man you ain't no killer if you gotta ask
We're turning the bluegrass blood red tonight
So run 'til that old moon's the only spotlight
We're rolling out fellas
If you've got the sack
It's a beautiful day to get shot in the back
And I need me some old boys spoilin' to fight
'Cause we're busting out of this jailhouse tonight
And it's high on the hog or it's low in the ground
And if a man ain't willing then let him speak now
'Cause be it my Dolly
Or my mother gone on
I'm sleeping tonight
In an angel's arms
I know I'm due out in ten or so years
But I've got a craving for ten or so beers
And "with good behavior" never suited too well
You can't get to heaven if you don't run like hell
We're rolling out fellas
If you've got the sack
It's a beautiful day to get shot in the back
And I need me some hard-knockin' teeth-kickin' boys
'Cause I got a feeling we'll be making some noise
And it's high on the hog or it's low in the ground
And if a man ain't willing then let him speak now
'Cause be it my Dolly
Or my mother gone on
I'm sleeping tonight
In an angel's arms
Meet me upriver at the farm on the ridge
And if I don't make it just stay off the bridge
Tell Dolly I'm sorry that when I got built
The good Lord slipped up and left out the quit
We're rolling out fellas
If you've got the sack
It's a beautiful day to get shot in the back
And I need me some old boys to carry me home
Ain't no man alive deserves dyin' alone
And it's high on the hog or it's low in the ground
And if a man ain't willing then let him speak now
'Cause be it my Dolly
Or my mother gone on
I'm sleeping tonight
In an angel's arms
I'm sleeping tonight
In an angel's arms
I'm sleeping tonight
In an angel's arms
