Fly Down - Gillian Welch

Fly down, fly down, my angel

And light on my right knee

I need a little comfort

Some gentle company

Fly down, fly down, my angel

And stay close by my side

Hard times have come a-callin'

They will not be denied

{Bridge]

All at once I feel a bitter wail

There’s darkness in my doorway

That’s howling to get in

Fly down, fly down, my angel

I’m standing in the track

And I hear the beating thunder

Of that dark horse doubling back

Fly down, fly down, my angel

And take hold of my hand

I walk this world of sorrow

Alone upon the land
