[Verse 1]
He looked down into her brown 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 coming
And he said "This is my last fight
If they take me back to Texas
They won't take me back alive"

[Chorus]
There were seven Spanish angels
At the altar of the sun
They were praying for the lovers
In the valley of the gun
And whеn the battle stopped and thе smoke cleared
There was thunder from the throne
And seven Spanish angels
Took another angel home

[Verse 2]
She reached down and picked the gun up
That lay smoking in his hand
She said, "Father please forgive me
I can't make it without my man"
And she knew the gun was empty
And she knew she could not win
But her final prayer was answered
When the rifles fired again
[Chorus]
There were seven Spanish angels
At the altar of the sun
They were praying for the lovers
In the valley of the gun
And when the battle stopped, the smoke cleared
There was thunder from the throne
And seven Spanish angels
Took another angel home

[Chorus]
There were seven Spanish angels
At the altar of the sun, ah no
They were praying for the lovers
In the valley of the gun
And when the battle stopped, the smoke cleared
There was thunder from the throne
And seven Spanish angels
Took another angel home

[Outro]
And seven Spanish angels
Took another angel home
Took another angel home
Ooooo
Took another angel home
