Artist/Band: Loretta Lynn
Lyrics for Song: You Wouldn't Know an Angel
Lyrics for Album: Wings Upon Your Horns [1970]



(Loretta Lynn - Frances Rhodes)



Because I won't give in to you

You don't treat me like you should

You said that I'm too perfect

Then you tell me I'm no good.



But everyone is guilty

Of sometimes doin' wrong

But even so you wouldn't know

An angel if you saw one.



No, you wouldn't know

An angel if you saw one

You won't see any halos

On the women found in bars.



I may not get to heaven

But I'm not the only one

To tell you so you wouldn't know

An angel if you saw one.



--- Instrumental ---



Now you stand there accusing me

Of things you always do

And half the things you're telling me

Are things I never knew.



I don't go places you go

But that's your way of think

If yours is yours you wouldn't knows

An angel if you saw one.



No, you wouldn't know

An angel if you saw one

You won't see any halos

On the women found in bars.



I may not get to heaven

But I'm not the only one

To tell you so you wouldn't know

An angel if you saw one...
