Walking all alone in the Southern rain By graveyards and battlefields that blood still stains Back to a time when the angels came Walking all alone in the Southern rain
In the forests and the fields so many men were killed I can hear their cries still echo through these hills That was the time when the angels came Walking all alone in the Southern rain
The angels came down to the fallen men They held their hands and they prayed for them They carried their souls beyond the moon and the sun All the way to heaven one by one
The angels worked so hard for so many years To heaven and back again they shed so many tears They left no one and they placed no blame Walking all alone in the Southern rain
The angels came down to the fallen men They held their hands and they prayed for them They carried their souls beyond the moon and the sun All the way to heaven one by one
Walking all alone in the Southern rain Never heal the troubles never heal the pain But that was the time when the angels came Walking all alone in the Southern Rain
