SWEET BLACK ANGEL- The Rolling Stones
G
Got a sweet black angel, got a pin up girl
Got a sweet black angel, up upon my wall
Well, she ain’t no singer and she ain’t no star
But she sure talk good, and she move so fast
G G/F# Em Am
But the gal in danger, yeah, de gal in chains
D G
But she keep on pushin’, would ya take her place?
G G/F# Em Am
She countin’ up de minutes, she countin’ up de days
D G
She’s a sweet black angel, woh, not a sweet black slave
Ten little niggers sittin’ on de wall
Her brothers been a fallin’, fallin’ one by one
For a judge’s murder in a judge’s court
Now de judge he gonna judge her for all dat he’s worth
Em Am
Well de gal in danger, de gal in chains
D G
But she keep on pushin’, would you do the same?
Em Am
She countin’ up de minutes, she countin’ up de days
D D
She’s a sweet black angel, not a gun toting teacher
D D
Not a Red lovin’ school mom, ain’t someone gonna free her
G G
Free de sweet black slave, free de sweet black slave
G G
Free de sweet black slave, free de sweet black slave
