Running Off The Angels Lyrics by The Band Loula
I quit church and never went back
Sang my last red-covered hymn
Soon as I’s gone, the choir said
“Amen”
I was blind but now I see
The judgement that was passed on me
Lord have mercy, set me free
Amen
Hallelujah, I’ve been saved
I paid my dues in the back pew and fell from grace
Heaven help us, the devil ain’t in Hell
He’s runnin’ all the angels out of the Bible Belt
He wrote my scarlet letter down
Preached it to the whole damn town
Dug my grave, cast me out
And then he said
“Fold your hands, close your legs
Shut your mouth and bow your head”
Call me a lost cause, I’m better off gone
Amen
Hallelujah, I’ve been saved
I paid my dues in the back pew and fell from grace
Heaven help us, the devil ain’t in Hell
He’s runnin’ all the angels out of the Bible Belt
What can wash away my sin?
Nothin’ but the blood
Oh, what can make me whole again?
Nothin’ but the blood
Hallelujah, I’ve been saved
I paid my dues in the back pew and fell from grace
Heaven help us, the devil ain’t in Hell
He’s runnin’ all the angels out of the Bible Belt
He’s runnin’ all the angels out of the Bible Belt
He’s runnin’ all the angels out of the Bible Belt
