I been had and I been held With the ghosts at bay I been oaked and I been doped And carried away I been charred and I been scarred On my own face But I never thought I'd see you as I did Today Till the angels hung around Till the angels hung around Till the angels hung around As they carried me away I been clubbed and I been snubbed By the dogs of LA And I been burned and I been learned In the same city I been whored and I been gored I been less and I been more But I never thought I'd see you As I did today Till the angels hung around Till the angels hung around Till the angels hung around As they carried me away Ooh! Ooh! Ooh! Ooh! You were stuck in the badlands Acting like a bad bad man I been photographed and painted up And I been in love only once And I feared the best and loved the worst And insisted that I go first And watch your eyes as they poured And I never really loved you more And I never thought I'd see you As I did today Till the angels hung around Till the angels hung around Till the angels hung around As they carried you away And they put you in the ground When the angels hung around And the angels hung around As they carried me away
