Indiana's Angel - Brantley Gilbert

Grew up one state North of Kentucky

A Family far from rolling in the money

7 brothers and sisters to feed and love

Granddaddy said she kept her eyes on the sky

Watching all the little birds fly

Staring at heaven like her lost home

None of her dreams held fame and fortune

She wanted a husband and children that loved her

Spreading her wings her feet left ground in Indiana

Driving down south just to marry my daddy

Leaving the life she’d known and loved behind

She never cussed or drank, kept food on the table

Hell, I kept her on her knees in prayer

She’s a God-sent blessing, willing and able

As Indiana’s angel

Baby back home your daddy’s dying

'Bout then the king of perfect timing

Walked in with liquor on my breath

I sat and watched all of her tears glisten

She said, «Son you’ll learn to listen

A man stands taller from his knees

Now I’ll never forget how much that hurt

She said, «Son, one day, I’ll be gone;

you won’t have to hear these words

Spreading her wings her feet left ground in Indiana

Driving down south just to marry my daddy

Leaving the life she’d known and loved behind

She never cussed or drank, kept food on the table

Hell, I kept her on her knees in prayer

She’s a God-sent blessing, willing and able

As Indiana’s angel

Spreading her wings her feet left ground in Indiana

Driving down south just to marry my daddy

Leaving the life she’d known and loved behind

She never cussed or drank, kept food on the table

Hell, I kept her on her knees in prayer

She’s a God-sent blessing, willing and able

As Indiana’s angel
