SEVEN SPANISH ANGELS

 

He looked down into her blue eyes and said say a prayer for me

She threw her arms around him whispered God will keep us free

They could hear the riders comin' he said this is my last fight

If they take me back to Texas they won't take me back alive

 

There were seven Spanish angels at the altar of the sun

They were prayin' for the lovers in the valley of the gun

When the battle stopped and the smoke cleared

There was thunder from the throne

And seven Spanish angels took another angel home

 

She reached down and picked the gun up

That lay smokin' in his hand

She said Father please forgive me

I can't make it without my man

And she knew the gun was empty

And she knew she couldn't win

But her final prayer was answered

When the rifles fired again
