Sweet Little Angel - Big Mama Thornton

I’ve got a sweet little angel

And I love the way she spreads her wings

Yes I got a sweet little angel

And I love the way she spreads her wings

Yes when she spreads her wings around me You know I get joy in everything

I asked my baby for a nickel

And she gave me a twenty dollar bill

Yes asked my baby for a nickel

And she gave me a twenty dollar bill

I asked her for a little drink of liquor

My baby gave me a whiskey still

Yes if my baby should quit me Lord I do believe I would die

Yes if my baby my baby should quit me I do believe I would die

Yes if you done love me little angel

Please please tell me the reason why

I just got to have a little more
