Chapters00:00 - Playing: Willie Nelson - Angel Flying Too Close to the Ground
Notes
No person on this earth has ever been a bigger Willie fan than my dear departed mother Norma who moved on many years ago.
This one goes out to her....
This particular tune was from back in the old days when they really hadn't figured out how to write a great country song yet...ya' know, like they do nowadays.
I mean, just look at these amateur hour lyrics...
"If you had not have fallen
Then I would not have found you
Angel flying too close to the ground
And I patched up your broken wing and hung around a while
Trying to keep your spirits up and your fever down
I knew someday that you would fly away
For love's the greatest healer to be found
So leave me if you need to, I will still remember
Angel flying too close to the ground
Fly on, fly on past, the speed of sound
I'd rather see you up than see you down
So leave me if you need to, I will still remember
Angel flying too close to the ground.
So leave me if you need to, I will still remember
Angel flying too close to the ground."
