Angels Love Bad Men

When his stolen gold has turned to rust

He rides off in a cloud of dust

Lookin' for a border he can cross

She'll stand by and watch him go

Wonderin' if he'll ever know

The hurt she's feelin' now

And what they've lost



Angels love bad men that's how it's always been

They give their whole hearts when they fall

Angels love bad men that's how it's always been

Love holds their hearts against the wall



When his corporate day comes to and end

He rides away in his Mercedes Benz

Soon he's lost beneath the neon sky

Outside of town, in their suburban home

She spends another night alone

And wonders what went wrong wonders why



Angels love bad men that's how it's always been

They give their whole hearts when they fall

Angels love bad men that's how it's always been

Love holds their hearts against the wall
