This laura fed the hungry in the church house basement
After she retired from teaching school
She picked my son up in her arms on sundays
Teach them all about the golden rule
I heard those stories about selma and tuskee
How she helped me martinfields and jails
All I know she had the strength of ten grown men
Even though her hands were small and frail
She was an everyday angel
A kind without wings
Walking round in this world
Just like you and me angel
Livin' out of love
The kind of people we could use a lot more of just an
Everyday angel
Everyday angel
Marilyn was waiting outside my old man's office
Trying to hide the bruises on her face
He said you don't have to get knocked around anymore
You can come and stay at our place
I didn't know till I had kids of my own
But I learned a big lesson that day
What you do means a whole lot more
Than anything you have to say
You'll be an everyday angel
The kind without wings
Walking round in this world just like you and me angel
Living out of love
Kind of people we could use a lot more of just an
Everyday angel
Everyday angel
Dave was gonna meet his wife
At a coffee shop in brooklyn
He heard the alarm sing out
Nine one one he was running upstairs
That he never got back down down down
He was an everyday angel earning his wings
Trying to save people who were just like you and me
Angel living out love
Kind of people
We could use a lot more of just an everyday angel
Everyday angel
Everyday angel
Oh
Yeah
