Lyrics

THE ANGELS OF NEW ORLEANS (by Scott Detweiler)

The angels of New Orleans
Are watchin over me
Are watchin over me

When I was in school the nuns did tell me
That God was watchin over me
He was watchin over me
Well I knew God was in heaven
Cause the nuns told that to me
The Angels of New Orleans
Were watchin over me

From California to New Orleans
Jobs and women I have known
There were days when I felt so all alone
There were days when I’d forgotten
That God was watchin over me
The Angels of New Orleans
Were watchin over me

Over me
Over me

When all of this is done and over
And I’ve sung my last song
Know I did the best I could to get along
Know although at times I struggled
With my own beliefs
The Angels of New Orleans
Were watchin over me

Over me
Over me

The Angels of New Orleans
Right now
Are watchin over me
