Where Angels Hang Around

Lyrics

A hundred miles out of Little Rock
 Windshield full of rain
 I-40 eastbound drivin' while I pray
 She's asleep in the backseat
 Holdin' tight to her teddy bear
 She's got her daddy's smile and her momma's hair
 But one word knocked our lives off track
 Just one word keeps us comin' back
 Chorus:
 Across the Mississippi
 A mile or two from Beale Street
 Not too far from Graceland
 Where the king of rock and roll sleeps
 To a place for children
 Where God sends his mercy rainin' down
 In the heart of Memphis
 Where angels hang around
 All the deals I've made with God
 The conversations that we've had
 Tryin' to accept things I could not understand
 I wanna walk her down the aisle
 While those church bells ring
 See her get the chance
 To live all her dreams
 But one word knocked our lives off track
 Just one word keeps us comin' back
 Chorus
 So sleep tight baby while these four wheels roll
 'Cause just beyond the clouds there's a ray of hope
 There's a place for children
 Where God sends his mercy rainin' down
 In the heart of Memphis
 Where angels hang around
