Angel - Chicken Soup lyrics

rate me

Standin' there, by the old town clock.

With my coat in my hand,

I thought I'd go for a walk

Like my Momma said: "You'll never be poor",

But can you really be sure

You've got to help, doctor doctor, got to take the cure.

Strollin' round, I was hit by surprise,

By a bit of a dream,

That looked me straight in the eyes.

My Momma said: "You'll never be poor",

But can you really be sure?

You've got to help, doctor doctor, got to take the cure.

Everyday, I think I see her again,

With the passing of time,

My chances just never came.

Like my Momma said: "You'll never be poor",

But can you really be sure?

You've got to help, doctor doctor, got to take the cure.

Fourteen years, since I saw her that night,

Things are not quite the same,

My head just ain't feelin' right.

My Momma said: "You'll never be poor",

But can you really be sure?

You've gotta to help, doctor doctor, got to take the cure.

Oh you're right that I tried,

To tell myself that I'll be all right.

Feelin' poor, that's for sure,

I need a bowl of my Momma's cure.

Oh you're right that I tried,

To tell myself that I'll be all right,

Feelin' poor, that's for sure,

I need a bowl of my Momma's cure.
