Album: The Complete Roulette Dinah Washington Sessions
Well, if I never get to heaven
It won’t be because I ain’t tryin'
If I never get to heaven
It won’t be because I ain’t tryin'
You see I’ve got myself an angel
And that’s all I need to be my guide
If I never hit seven
Eleven once or twice ain’t bad
I said, if I never hit seven
Eleven once or twice ain’t bad
You see I’ve got myself an angel
And that’s more than I ever had
He builds me up, he cuts me down
He treats me good when he’s around
Sometimes he takes me out, to get
So stop that lookin', fellas 'cause I got everything I need
You see I’ve got myself an angel
Standin' here by my side
Well, if I never get to heaven
It won’t be because I ain’t tryin'
Well, well, if I never get to heaven
It won’t be because I ain’t tryin'
'Cause I’ve got myself an angel
And he’s standin' here by my side
