Yeah I said "Momma he's crazy and he scares me

But I want him by my side

Though he's wild and he's bad and sometimes just plain mad

I need him to keep me satisfied"

I said "Papa don't cry cause it's alright

And I see you in some of his ways

Though he might not give me the love that you wanted

I'll love him the rest of my days"



Misguided angel hangin over me

Heart like a Gabriel, pure and white as ivory

Soul like a Lucifer, black and cold like a piece a lead

Misguided angel, love you till I'm dead



I said "Brother speak to me of passion

You said never to settle for nothin less

Well it's in the way he walks, it's in the way he talks

His smile, his anger, and his kisses"

Yeah I said "Sister don't you understand?

He's all I ever wanted in a man

I'm tired of sittin round the t.v. every night

Hoping I'm finding a Mister Right"



Misguided angel hangin over me

Heart like a Gabriel, pure and white as ivory

Soul like a Lucifer, black and cold like a piece a lead

Misguided angel, love you till I'm dead



He says "Baby don't listen to what they say

There comes a time when you'll have to break away"

He says "Baby there are things we all cling to all our lives

It's time to let them go and become my wife"



Misguided angel hangin over me

Heart like a Gabriel, pure and white as ivory

Soul like a Lucifer, black and cold like a piece a lead

Misguided angel, love you till I'm dead
