(I'm an angel with a shotgun, shotgun, shotgun)
(An angel with a shotgun, shotgun, shotgun)
Get out your guns, battle's begun
Are you a saint or a sinner?
If love's a fight, then I shall die
With my heart on a trigger
They say before you start a war
You better know what you're fighting for
Well, baby, you are all that I adore
If love is what you need, a soldier I will be
I'm an angel with a shotgun
Fighting till the war's won
I don't care if heaven won't take me back
I'll throw away my faith, babe, just to keep you safe
Don't you know you're everything I have?
And I wanna live, not just survive, tonight
Sometimes, to win, you've got to sin
Don't mean I'm not a believer
And Major Tom will sing along
Yeah, they still say I'm a dreamer
They say before you start a war
You better know what you're fighting for
Well, baby, you are all that I adore
If love is what you need, a soldier I will be
I'm an angel with a shotgun
Fighting till the war's won
I don't care if heaven won't take me back
I'll throw away my faith, babe, just to keep you safe
Don't you know you're everything I have?
And I wanna live, not just survive, tonight
Ooohhh, ooohhh whoa whoa oooh whoa
I'm an angel with a shotgun
Fighting till the war's won
I don't care if heaven won't take me back
I'm an angel with a shotgun
Fighting till the war's won
I don't care if heaven won't take me back
I'll throw away my faith, babe, just to keep you safe
Don't you know you're everything I have?
(I'm an angel with a shotgun)
And I want to live, not just survive, tonight
(Live, not just survive)
And I'm gonna hide, hide, hide my wings tonight
They say before you start a war
You better know what you're fighting for
Well, baby, you are all that I adore
If love is what you need, a soldier I will be
