Send Me A Honky-Tonk Angel       MP3 Excerpt
Brian Burns - (C)opr. 1999 - Brian Burns Music (BMI)

Dear God, as you can see, I’ve been drinkin’,
and this ain’t the first time, as you know,
but tonight, Lord, I feel like I’m sinkin’
a little too low...
and now, see the clubs they’re all closin’,
and it sure does seem dark out tonight.
I know I’m not one of the chosen,
but I could sure use a little light.

CHORUS:
Send me a honky-tonk angel,
lend me a night in her wings
to cry on her shoulder and help me get over
the mountains of memories the nighttime can bring.

Dear God, well, I know I’m not worth it,
but don’t leave me down here all alone.
Hey, she doesn’t have to be perfect,
and I’ll do her no wrong...

REPEAT CHORUS
