On Tuesdays mornings you'd wake her up

Take the firty clothes

And be on your way



 In the afternoons

When she got home

You'd share a snack

And talk about the day



 You'd fry chicken

 If angels can fly

Then you can fly

If angels can fly

Then you'd...

To play with children door to door

Unaware of heat between your colors

Eternal war of man rich and poor



 And home there was no home

With you she‘d run away

They love you so“

And gentle strength convinced the girl



 Then you can fly

If angels can fly

Then you'd...



 When you had a stroke on

That summer's night

The teenage girl nearly

Thought you died

Then you can fly

If angels can fly

Then you can...
