Carmaig de Forest Ballad of a Drunk Driver Lyrics

This is my story
And I'm stickin' to it
I was having a few
at the bar with the boys

It came time to leave
She appeared out of nowhere
An angel
to drive me home

No, sir, I don't know her name
She was beautiful, that's how I'd describe her

She offered to drive
I gave her my keys
She said she was stone cold sober
And a d___ good driver

They say "God protects drunks
and little children!"
Got the breath of the one
And the might of the other
Roscoe, give me back
The keys to my truck
Gonna find me an angel
'Cause I'm feelin' lucky

We was gettin' to know each other
I did most of the talking
When that other car veered into us
We went flying 'cross the field

That's when she said
"I'm outta here"
And disappeared
into the night

So no thank you, Officer
I don't need a breath test
No crime in me drinking
Since it wasn't me drivin'

And as for your so-called
witnesses
Send 'em all home
They can't prove anything

Yeah, God and the Law
Protect drunks like me
Once I get my truck fixed
I'll be drivin' home free
And next time I'm
too wasted do drive
I'm gonna find me an angel
'Cause I'm feelin' lucky

Well, the next time came soon
As I got back my wheels
But this time
It was a cliff, not a field

Nobody else
was found in the truck
Guess my angel got away
Angel's got all the luck

She appeared in the night
And she walked away softly
An angel
To drive me home
