Lyrics:

                                                  
VERSE 1

Years he spent  working 

To support our family

Yet Time had only left him  

With his Broken dreams

 

He always said that nothing

In this world is free

Then with shaking hands

He poured the whiskey 

 
And  Daddy prayed

 
CHORUS

So The good lord sent an angel

To keep the devil in his place

And stop a hundred proof tornado

Swelled up with rage

Jesus knew that mama 

Could uphold her mighty task

So when Daddy poured the whiskey

Mama held the glass

 

VERSE 2  -       

With every year

every angry word

Mama Took the brunt

And Dusted off the hurt

 

She said don't be afraid

a 1000 times to  me

 Daddy's glass in her hand

She poured  out his  whiskey

 
and daddy prayed

 
CHORUS

So The good lord sent an angel

To keep the devil in his place

And stop a hundred proof tornado

Swelled up with rage

Jesus knew that mama 

Could uphold her mighty task

So when Daddy poured the whiskey

Mama held the glass

 

BRIDGE-- 

Heaven needed an angel 

10 yrs ago today

Now His sober tears are falling on her grave

 

and we all prayed 

 

CHORUS --     

Lord Thank you for Mama  

She put the devil in his place

And stopped a hundred proof tornado

That swelled up with rage 

 

With all her strength from heaven

She finished up her mighty task

When Daddy poured out the last drop of whiskey

An angel held the glass

When Daddy poured out the last drop of whiskey

An angel held the glass
