Little Black Angel - Death In June

Black angel, black angel, as you grow up

I want you to drink from the plenty cup

My little black angel

My little black angel

My little black angel, as years go by

I want you to fly with wings held high

I want you to live by the justice code

I want you to burn down freedom’s road

My little black angel

My little black angel

My little black angel

My little black angel

Oh, lie away, oh, lie away sleeping

Lie away safe in my arms

Your father, your future protects you

Locks you safe from all harm

Little black angel, I feel so glad

You’ll never have things I never had

When out of men’s hearts all hate has gone

It’s better to die than forever live on

My little black angel

My little black angel

My little black angel

My little black angel

Oh, lie away, oh, lie away sleeping

Lie away safe in my arms

Your father, your future protects you

Locks you safe from all harm

Little black angel, I feel so glad

You’ll never have things I never had

When out of men’s hearts all hate has gone

It’s better to die than forever live on

My little black angel

My little black angel

My little black angel

My little black angel

My little black angel, as years go by

I want you to fly with wings held high

I want you to live by the justice code

I want you to burn down freedom’s road

My little black angel

My little black angel

My little black angel

My little black angel
