VERSE 1
She used to haunt the backstreet bars
With a hollow smile and a heart full of scars
Powder on the mirror, tears in her eyes
Livin’ every day like a slow suicide
She’d ride all night in a Chevrolet
Tryin’ to outrun what she couldn’t escape
Lord, the devil had her by the hand
Till grace came walkin’ in like a man
CHORUS
Now there’s three little angels runnin’ through the yard
A good man beside her and a brand-new heart
No more white lines on a bathroom sink
No more drownin’ herself in whiskey drinks
She traded those neon nights for front porch swings
Bedtime prayers and diamond rings
Yeah, redemption came and took her hand
Now she’s mama to three little girls and a husband’s best friend
VERSE 2
She still remembers those cold motel rooms
Cheap perfume and the smell of doom
Friends dropped dead and the dealers lied
She buried a lotta her soul inside
But one Sunday mornin’ she hit her knees
Said, “God, if You’re there, don’t give up on me”
And somewhere between the hurt and shame
She found herself again
CHORUS
Now there’s three little angels runnin’ through the yard
A good man beside her and a brand-new heart
No more white lines on a bathroom sink
No more drownin’ herself in vodka drinks
She traded those neon nights for front porch swings
Bedtime prayers and diamond rings
Yeah, redemption came and took her hand
Now she’s mama to three little girls and a husband’s best friend
BRIDGE
Some folks whisper when she walks in town
But she just smiles and don’t look down
’Cause every scar she carries now
Is proof the good Lord pulled her out
FINAL CHORUS
And those three little angels laughin’ in the sun
Are the reason she stayed when she wanted to run
There’s a Bible on the table and pictures on the wall
And love where there was nothin’ at all
Yeah, the past still knocks now and then
But it don’t live here anymore, my friend
She was lost but heaven had a plan
Now she’s mama to three little girls and a husband’s loving hand
OUTRO
From cocaine nights to lullabies
That’s the kind of miracle you can’t deny
