Indiana's Angel

[Verse 1] Grew up one state North of Kentucky A Family far from rolling in the money 7 brothers and sisters to feed and love Granddaddy said she kept her eyes on the sky Watching all the little birds fly Staring at heaven like her lost home None of her dreams held fame and fortune She wanted a husband and children that loved her [Chorus] Spreading her wings her feet left ground in Indiana Driving down south just to marry my daddy Leaving the life she'd known and loved behind She never cussed or drank, kept food on the table Hell, I kept her on her knees in prayer She's a God-sent blessing, willing and able As Indiana's angel [Verse 2] Baby back home your daddy's dying 'Bout then the king of perfect timing Walked in with liquor on my breath I sat and watched all of her tears glisten She said, "Son you'll learn to listen A man stands taller from his knees Now I'll never forget how much that hurt She said, "Son, one day, I'll be gone; you won't have to hear these words [Chorus][2x]
