I've got a sweet little angel

Yes got a sweet little angel

Yes, when she spreads her wings around me

I get joy, and everything

You know I asked my baby for a nickel

Oh yes, I asked my baby for a nickel

Whoah, you know I ask her to buy a little drink of liquor

And she gave me a whiskey still

Oh, if my baby should quit me

I believe I would die

Oh if my baby should quit me

Lord I do believe I would die

Yes if you don't love me little angel

Please tell me the reason why
