Your R & B records  your music books

Your sense of humor and your rugged good looks

I see you now at the piano

Your back a slow curve

Playing Ray Charles and Fats Domino

While I sang all the words

Little angel little brother

Your bad habits and your attitude

Your restless ways and your solitude

I see you leaning your lanky frame

Just inside the door

A figure behind the kitchen screen

Staring down at the floor

Little angel little brother



[SOLO]



Little angel little brother

Your passion for Shakespeare and your paperbacks

Your chess pieces and your wisecracks

I see you sleeping in the car

Curled up on the back seat

Parked outside of a bar

An empty bottle at your feet

Little angel little brother

Your R & B records your music books

Your sense of humor and your rugged good looks

I see you now at the piano

Your back a slow curve

Playing Ray Charles and Fats Domino

While I sang all the words

Little angel little brother

Little angel little brother of mine
