Helluva Chance

 

Hey you got your boots pointed in wrong direction

We were crying before too much reflection

Well the ice was melting off tree branches

We had a three-day beard and took sideways glances

Well that woman was long and her legs were lean

You were black and blue and all serene

You took a Helluva chance on them angels coming

You took a Helluva chance on them angels coming

Now lights are flashing and women are crying

And the lawyers are ready to start their lying

You took a Helluva chance on them angels coming

Hey you gotta slide out cause they got you running

Some Dirty Harry’s gonna come gunning

Left behind your old daddy’s guitar

As payment in kind for a stolen car

Well the pretty woman sings like a bird in a cage

Said you left her in a naked jealous rage

You took a Helluva chance on the angels coming

You took a Helluva chance on them angels coming

Now lights are flashing and women are crying

And the lawyers are ready to start their lying

You took a Helluva chance on the angels coming

You took a Helluva chance on them angels coming
