Andy Griggs - 20 Little Angels

A friday in decamber just any ordanary day for me
Tillmy momma called me said turn on your t.v.
I just sat there in silence in disbeleif and tears
Those little souls that had only been here for six or seven years
Befor they flew away 20 little angels

I cussed out loud in anger and i hurt for those moms and dads
I know we're not supposed to question god
But i even did some of that
How can someone so heaven sent so inocent and frill
Wind up in the middle of someone elses hell
Befor they flew away 20 little angels

(chorus)

I know in heaven tonight,theres baseballs flyin over fences
High in the sky,fingerpaintings hanging on fridges
In gods holy light, ballerinas blowin kisses
Fillin heaven with love
I can almost see,a pocadotted princess
Servin hot tea to the grandpa she haddent met yet
I can hear 'em sing at the top of there lungs
To god up above
Im heart broke but faithfull theres 20 little angels
Watching over us

Theres a touchdown on a friday night that will never be thrown
Theres a pink prom dress that fits just right that will never be tried on
Theres a dirty ford on a country road that will never see there first kiss
But as much and we're gunna miss them there aint much there gunna miss
Sense they flew away 20 little angels

(chorus)

I know in heaven tonight,with wings and two teeth missin
High in the sky,they're up there somewhere listenin
With a watchfull eye they're babysittin us from up above
I know they can see everybody crying
They're so at ease while we're slowly dyin
We just want to be right there beside them
But untill that day comes
Im heart broke but faithfull 20 little angels
Watching over us

Oh and i cant here 'em prayin and i cant see 'em fly
But everytime the sun comes breakin threw the sky
Im heart broke but faithful theres 20 little angels
Watching over us
Im heart broke but faithful theres 20 little angels
Watching over us

(little kid)
Theres 20 little angles watching over you
