|
He looked down into her brown eyes |
|
And said, "Say a prayer for me" |
|
She threw her arms around him |
|
Whispered, "God will keep us free" |
|
They could hear the riders comin' |
|
He said, "This is my last fight |
|
If they take me back to Texas |
|
They won't take me back alive" |
|
There were seven Spanish Angels |
|
At the altar of the Sun |
|
They were prayin' for the lovers |
|
In the valley of the gun |
|
When the battle stopped and the smoke cleared |
|
There was thunder from the throne |
|
And seven Spanish Angels |
|
Took another angel home |
|
She reached down and picked the gun up |
|
That lay smokin' in his hand |
|
She said, "Father, please forgive me |
|
I can't make it without my man" |
|
And she knew the gun was empty |
|
And she knew she couldn't win |
|
But her final prayer was answered |
|
When the rifles fired again |
|
There were seven Spanish Angels |
|
At the altar of the Sun |
|
They were prayin' for the lovers |
|
In the valley of the gun |
|
When the battle stopped and the smoke cleared |
|
There was thunder from the throne |
|
And seven Spanish Angels |
|
Took another angel home |
|
