Lyrics

Jukebox Angel by Reynaldo Cantu (lyrics) and Richard C. Tollini (music) © 2020

You couldn't really call it life, what I was doing way back then
Drinkin' beers all alone in a sleazy back street bar
Callin' names, an' pickin' fights that I could never win
I'd stumble home, so ashamed trying not to care

It was a miracle I'd have to guess, cuz you won't believe what happened next
A angel came through the door, the one that I've been looking for.. she said

I'll be your jukebox angel just as long as you'll be true
but if you mess around on me I'll bring the devil down on you

I'd loved and lost like everybody else and wasted all my days
feeling sorry for myself in self-destructive ways

It was a miracle I'd have to guess, cuz you wouldn't believe what happened next
A juke box angel, like a sign from above came to save my soul with love...
she said ...

I'll be your jukebox angel just as long as you'll be true
but if you mess around on me I'll bring the devil down on you

I'd listen to the sad songs on the Wurlitzer machine
and all the words I heard you were saying what I mean

I'll be your jukebox angel just as long as you'll be true
but if you mess around on me I'll bring the devil down on you
