Lyrics for Song: I Ain't No Angel
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Ian Hunter
(corky laing/ian hunter)
I told my baby girl
That I live by all the rules
She laughed and said to me
Don't you take me for a fool
Then she ran me down
People saw me over town
Then word got back to her
That I was fooling round
I, I ain't no angel
I, I ain't no angel
So good, goodbye love
Good, goodbye love
Now I'm living on my own
Since my baby set me free
Seems I hurt her pride
And caused her misery
She never understands
To keep me satisfied
I got to live this life
The only way I can
I, I ain't no angel
I, I ain't no angel
So good, goodbye love
I said good, goodbye love
All right then, come on
I, I ain't no angel
I, I ain't no angel
So good, goodbye love
I said good, goodbye love
Now they say there is no doubt
That the question in their minds
That I'll be down and out
And the days I'll never find
But you'll never understand
To keep me satisfied
I got to live my life
The only way I can
Singing, i, I ain't no angel
I, I ain't no angel
So good, goodbye love
I said good, goodbye love
