Alcohol was a friend of mine It almost got me dead I crashed some cars, got into fights Somethings I now regret I've been told, I've got nine lives Or maybe even ten Now I've changed my ways, my soul's restored I'm better now than then We're just a little below A little lower than the angels And that's alright, that's alright with me Temptin' fate's not what I wanna do I'll soon enough be dead And all that glitters isn't always gold You know I've heard it said II've taken chances, I crossed the line I lost my faith in love Now the road is clear, my aim is true With help from above We're just a little below A little lower than the angels And that's alright, that's alright with me We're just a little below A little lower than the angels And I can't fly, I won't fly away You know I won't fly away We gotta find our own way But I don't know If I'll make it to heaven Just open the gates of hell Daddy, have you ever seen an angel? Sure baby, well what was it like? The most beautiful thing I've ever seen Just a little below A little lower than the angels And that's alright, that's alright with me We're just a little below A little lower than the angels And I can't fly, I won't fly away We're just a little below A little lower than the angels And that's alright, that's alright with me We're just a little below A little lower than the angels And I can't fly, I won't fly away We're just a little below A little lower than the angels And that's alright, that's alright with me We're just a little below
