Godsend

by Todd Snider

on Viva Satellite (1998)

Kimbrough

Trailer door, drink one more
Life goes on
Hotel walls and wake up calls
Another sleepless dawn.

First days smoke, the waitress jokes
And more coffee.

Godsend, Godsend
Send me an angel to love.

Bachelor life, you got two ex-wives
And a beer can pile
Nightclub world, ashtray girl
She's got a crooked smile.

Forty years, no lost tears
I'm still waiting.

Godsend, Godsend
Send me an angel to love.

Godsend, Godsend
Send me an angel to love.

Red beer sign, fools in line
Weekend crowd
Drain the cup to loosen up
And laugh out loud.

I'll survive, stay alive
And keep praying up above.

Godsend, Godsend
Send me an angel to love.

Godsend, Godsend
Send me an angel to love
Send me an angel to love
Send me an angel to love, to love.
