I went one more time to the five and dime tonight
I came back dead broke with a bottle of coke and a shiner on my eye
Then I found your number, I called it up
I drink whiskey straight from my coffee cup
Then I left the house and I headed out
There were empty bottles and cigarette smoke
Someone pass it around and tell me one more little dirty joke
Cause I'm lonely as ever, I'm ugly as sin, I need something better than this shape I've been in tonight
I've been in tonight

Little angel of the moonlight must have fallen down from grace
Cause it's getting way past midnight and I see the tears that stain your pretty face
But you're all innocence, lace, and white, little angel of the moonlight

I found one more rhyme at the bottom of my page
Just another line about all the times you turned your back and walked away
Left me here with my heart in my hands
Don't you worry dear if I don't understand all these little things, they're gonna make me who I am

Little angel of the moonlight must have fallen down from grace
Cause it's getting way past midnight and I see the tears that stained you weary face
With that coming of age boy, he broke your heart again
So walk on mine and now it's wearing thin again tonight it's black or white
Little angel of the moonlight
