Lyrics

Last night before I went to sleep
My knees dropped to the floor
I turned me eyes up to the sky
And I prayed: "please help me, lord
"You know I've sowed my wild oats
"And now the fun's all gone."
And then I heard these tender words
And I put them in my song:

"Infamous angel, come on home
"To someone who loves you
"And knows you needed to roam
"Grab your things, a ticket's waiting
"At the bus depot:
"For: 'infamous angel, destination: home'."

I heard heaven's choir rejoicing
As the tears broke from my eyes
And all at once it lifted
The weight from my past life
I found a pen and I left a note
On the dresser drawer:
"Infamous angel: she don't live here anymore."

"Infamous angel, come on home
"To someone who loves you
"And knows you needed to roam
"Grab your things, a ticket's waiting
"At the bus depot:
"For: 'infamous angel, destination: home'."

Instrumental break

Then I hurried out the back door
As quickly as I could
I went flying down two flights of stairs
'Til on the street I stood
And there I took that final look
At my old neighbourhood
Then I ran down the street proclaiming:
"Angel: gone for good."

Infamous angel, going home
To someone who loves her
And knows she needed to roam
She grabbed her things and claimed the ticket
At the bus depot:
For: "infamous angel, destination: home."
"Infamous angel, destination: home."
