Everyday Angel Lyrics - Singles - Radney Foster

Miss Laura fed the hungry in the church house basement 

After she'd retired from teaching school 

She'd pick my son up in her arms on Sundays 

To teach him all about the golden rule 

I heard those stories about Selma and Tuskegee 

How she'd helped Martin fill the jails 

All I know is she had the strength of ten grown men 

Even though her hands were small and frail 

She was an everyday angel, the kind without wings 

Walking around in this world, just like you and me 

Angel, living out love, kind of people we could us a lot more of 

Just an everyday angel, everyday angel 

Marilyn was waiting outside my old man's office 

Trying to hide the bruises on her face 

He said, "You don't have to get knocked around anymore 

You can come and stay at our place" 

I didn't know till I had kids of my own 

But I learned a big lesson that day 

What you do means a whole lot more 

Then anything you have to say 

Go be an everyday angel, the kind without wings 

Walking around in this world, just like you and me 

Angel, living out love, kind of people we could us a lot more of 

Just an everyday angel, everyday angel 

Dave was gonna meet his wife at a coffee shop in Brooklyn 

When he heard the alarm sing out "911" 

He was running up stairs then he never got back down 

Down, down 

He was an everyday angel, earnin' his wings 

Trying to save people who are just like you and me 

Angel, living out love, kind of people we could use a lot more of 

Just an everyday angel, everyday angel 

Everyday angel, everyday angel 

Everyday angel
