He looked down into
the brown eyes

and said
Say a prayer for me
And 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

alive
There were seven

Spanish angels
at the alter of the sun
They were prayin'
tor 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 can't 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
There were seven

Spanish angels
at the alter of the sun
They were prayin'
tor 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
There were seven

Spanish angels
at the alter of the sun
They were prayin'
tor 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
There were seven

Spanish angels
at the alter of the sun
They were prayin'
tor the lovers

in the valley
of the gun
