Lyrics for Sweet Little Angel

I've got a sweet little angel I love the way she spread her wings Yes got a sweet little angel I love the way she spread her wings Yes, when she spreads her wings around me I get joy, and everything You know I asked my baby for a nickel And she gave me a $20 bill Oh yes, I asked my baby for a nickel And she gave me a $20 bill Whoah, you know I ask her to buy a little drink of liquor And she gave me a whiskey still Oh, if my baby should quit me I believe I would die Oh if my baby should quit me Lord I do believe I would die Yes if you don't love me little angel Please tell me the reason why
