Angel From The Coast

The sacred heart is bleeding
 Go tell the Holy Ghost
 That the junkie is still cheating
 To get the thing he needs the most
 Lady Luck has got me covered
 Keeping her watchful eyes over me
 The lovers are discovered
 The charge is first degree
 ♪
 Angel, she's a killer
 She's just flown in from the coast
 Makes the hit, it's a winner
 Leaves you dead as the post
 When Sally took to playing poker
 The joker is her favorite card
 The drunk he can't stay sober
 He says it's oh much too hard, it's much too hard
 ♪
 Meantime something seedy
 Was happening across the hall
 Someone seemed to be groaning
 You could hear it through the wall
 And the cops they came like lightning
 The bullets flew astray
 The noise it was frightening
 But the crook he got away
