Seven Spanish Angels Lyrics
By Willie Nelson
Welcome to this Seven Spanish Angels lyrics page. Below are the lyrics to this song along with my cover of this classic.
This song was written by Troy Seals and Eddie Seser and in 1985 became a #1 hit for Willie Nelson and Ray Charles. Out of the 8 hits Ray Charles had on the country charts, this one became his biggest.
For those who may not be familar with East Coast humor, there was a remake of this called 7 Spanish Trawlers that poked fun at a serious fishing issue off the coast of Newfoundland.

He looked down into her blue eyes ... and said say a prayer for me
She threw her arms around him .. whispered God will keep us free
They could hear the riders comin ... he said this is my last fight
If they take me back to Texas ... they won't take me back alive
There were seven Spanish angels ... at the altar of the sun
They were prayin' for the lovers ... in the valley of the gun
When the battle stopped and the smoke cleared .. there was thunder from the throne
And seven spanish angels ... took another angel home
She reached down and picked the gun up ... that lay smokin in his hand
She said Father please forgive me ... I cant make it without my man
And she knew the gun was empty ... and she knew she couldn't win
But her final prayer was answered ... when the rifles fired again
