I'm An Angel Here On Earth

by jaynesloss   Jun 2, 2006


Belly up in the water
Face down in the sand
Belly up on a river float,
Holdin' on to my man's hand

Hear the beepin' of the taxis
Feel the rhythm of the streets
Start changin' your attitude,
Start shakin' the hands of those you meet

I'm headin' for the glory,
Of a day that has no shame
No Sinkin' to the bottom,
I stand up and scream your name

We're tack-a-lin each other,
In an alley while cars pass
One kid sticks his finger out the window,
While we're screamin' "Kiss my ass!"

I'm now livin' for a lifetime free of regret and seldom fun
I'm runnin' with a reason,
Got some time, I'm never done

I've got tickets, yet to be paid
I've got allibies where there were none
I've got time to now get laid
I've got more purpose with now to run

I've got friends and I've got fam'ly
I've got attention in a crowd
I've got brothers in the army
I've got pride and it is loud

I've got all these things and then some
Got no time to figure out
I'm in love and I know its dumb
But its great when I shout:

"I'm in heaven here on Earth" and
"I've been sleepin' since my birth" but "now I'm livin' for the moment"
"I'm an Angel here on Earth!"
