Hell on an Angel

I felt those cold metal rings around my wrist When I was seventeen Mama wondered where she went wrong When it came to raisin' me I had a bottle and Bible She said "There ain't no in-between" Well I was hell on an angel That liquor burned like gasoline I had one foot in the fire The other steppin' on her wings Well that temperature was risin' But I could not feel the heat Well I was hell on an angel That loved the devil out of me Well she wanted her a bad boy With a heart as pure as gold And I loved her to the end of the Earth But I sure loved gettin' stoned It was an early grave and prison For a family and a home (Yes it was) I was hell on an angel That liquor burned like gasoline I had one foot in the fire The other steppin' on her wing Well that temperature was risin' But I could not feel the heat Well I was hell on an angel That loved the devil out of me Well I was hell on an angel That liquor burned like gasoline I had one foot in the fire The other steppin' on her wings Well that temperature was risin' But I could not feel the heat I was hell on an angel That loved the devil out of me I was hell on an angel Loved the devil out of me Oh yeah Oh yeah
