Your R & B records your music books

Your sense of humor and your rugged good looks

I see you now at the piano

Your back a slow curve

Playing Ray Charles and Fats Domino

While I sang all the words

Little angel little brother

Your bad habits and your attitude

Your restless ways and your solitude

I see you leaning your lanky frame

Just inside the door

A figure behind the kitchen screen

Staring down at the floor

Little angel little brother

SOLO

Little angel little brother

Your passion for Shakespeare and your paperbacks

Your chess pieces and your wisecracks

I see you sleeping in the car

Curled up on the back seat

Parked outside of a bar

An empty bottle at your feet

Little angel little brother

Your R & B records your music books

Your sense of humor and your rugged good looks

I see you now at the piano

Your back a slow curve

Playing Ray Charles and Fats Domino

While I sang all the words

Little angel little brother

Little angel little brother of mine
