Pawn Shop Angel
Brittini Black

A few cds and an old Kodak

Some china plates and a Wal-Mart sack

Her mom passed down back in '92

The calloused clerk says twenty bucks

They both know that's not near enough

But she signs that ticket, cause the rent is due

She takes the cash and wipes away her tears

As another part of her disappears


She's worth so much more

Than this world gives her credit for

She keeps givin' pieces of herself away

She can't see she was made to fly

In the arms of heaven's light

She's fallin' cause her wings are tied and tangled

A pawnshop angel


Sometimes in her baby's eyes

She sees his face and that Friday night

In the backseat of his cavalier

Nine months later he was gone

She was 17 and on her own

She never dreamed she'd be standing here

She clinches to her mama's wedding band

She opens up her fingers and says give me what you can


She's worth so much more


Than this world gives her credit for

She keeps givin' pieces of herself away

She can't see she was made to fly

In the arms of heaven's light

She's fallin' cause her wings are tied and tangled

A pawnshop angel


She's an angel

And some day she'll fly


She's worth so much more

Than this world gives her credit for

She keeps givin' pieces of herself away

She can't see she was made to fly

In the arms of heaven's light

She's fallin' cause her wings are tied and tangled

A pawnshop angel

She can't see she was made to fly

In the arms of heaven's light

She's falling' cause her wings are tied and tangled

A pawnshop angel


She's an angel
