Текст песни Willie Nelson - Seven Spanish Angels

Seven Spanish Angels
Recorded by Willie Nelson
Written by Eddie Setser and Troy Seals

He looked down into her brown eyes and said  Say a prayer for me
She threw her arms around him whispered God will keep us free
They could see the riders coming  He said This is my last fight
If they take me back to Texas  They won't take me back alive

There were seven Spanish angels  At the altar of the sun
They were praying for the lovers   In the valley of the gun
 When the battle stopped and the smoke cleared  There was thunder from the throne
And seven Spanish angels  Took another angel home

She reached down and picked the gun up  That lay smoking in his hand
She said Father please forgive me  I can't make it without my man
And she knew the gun was empty  And she knew she could not win
But her final prayer was answered  When the rifles fired again

There were seven Spanish angels  At the altar of the sun
They were praying for the lovers   In the valley of the gun
When the battle stopped and the smoke cleared  There was thunder from the throne
And seven Spanish angels  Took another angel home

Extra Verse written by Ed Kehler

They came and found the lovers as they lay there side by side
Their dreams had all been shattered they said she was his bride
And they laid them by the Altar in the valley of the gun
Now their final fight was over and their battle had been won

There were seven Spanish angels  At the altar of the sun
They were praying for the lovers   In the valley of the gun
 When the battle stopped and the smoke cleared  There was thunder from the throne
And seven Spanish angels  Took another angel home
