You were sitting on the front porch with a wine glass in your hand.
North side of Waxahachie where I tried to make a stand.
I set down beside you. You smiled and I said hi. I knew I had to have you and I knew that I'd die trying.
You looked just like an angel like I never seen beore.
I was all the way from Georgia where I'd gone to fight the war.
I knew that I had fell in love when I drove away that night. I wanted to say thank you for giving me this life.
I'd always hear about you from that night as time drug on
And when I was around you played it cool and not let on.
But I was crazy bout you but your age was 17 I knew how much I loved you I just hoped that you loved me.
You looked just like an angel like I've never seen before
I was all the way from Georgia where I'd gone to fight the war
I knew that I had fell in love when I drove away that night
I wanted to say thank you for giving me this life.
And six years to the day music played we sang along north side of Stephenville where I used to write my songs.
Now three years we been married still in love and singing songs
On the south side of Austin that's where we make our home.
You looked just like an angel live I've never seen before I was all the way from Georgia where I'd gone to fight the war.
I knew that I had fell in love when I drove away that night
I wanted to say thank you for giving me this life.
You still look like an angel like I never seen before I was just a boy from Maypearl who came back from fighting wars
I knew that I had fell in love when I drove away that night
I wanted to say thank you for giving me this life
I wanted to say thank you for giving me this like
