Sweet Black Angel (Black Angel Blues) Lyrics

Oh I got a sweet black angel
Oh and I love the way she spreads her wings
I got a sweet black angel
And I love the way she spreads her wings
Don't you know it
I get joy in everything

Oh when she spreads her wing all over me
Ah don't you know I get joy in everything
Oh, when my angel spreads her wing all over me
People you know I get joy in everything
You know I feel a joyfull mood
I sit right there and I don't say a thing

Now look-a-here

Oh, if my black angel should quit me
People I do believe I would die
Oh oh if my my my my my black angel should quit me people
You know you know I believe I would die
You know if you don't love me angel
Please tell me the reason why

Yes I got the blues
Can I keep on can I keep going?

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
