Tarnished Angel

(Roger Miller)



Your halo is the neon

Your heart a jukebox song

Your heaven is a honky tonk

You love to live so wrong.



I know your not a changin'

As a saint you've gained no fame

My angels kinda tarnished

But I love, just the same.



Tarnished angel

From a backstreet bar

Tarnished angel

I want you just as you are.



Our worlds are strange and different

But love they says is blind

I'll try to live in your world

If you won't live in mine.

If you won't live in mine...
