Mountain Angel Dolly Parton

Pretty as an angel from the day that she was born
Skin as fair as lilies, hair as golden as the corn
They knew that she was special
From the moment she first cried
She was a mountain angel, certify

She was her momma's baby, she was her daddy's pride
Good at home, at church and school, at everything she tried
Everybody's darling led a charmed and peaceful life
The perfect mountain angel 'til he arrived

And ohh, she fell so deeply
Ooh, she couldn't stop
She gave herself to him, yielded completely
He lifted her so high and let her drop

She gave up everything for him that mattered in her life
All the others that had loved her and she vowed to be his wife
She dreamed of bearing children in an ivy-covered house
The mountain angel's sunshine turned to clouds

The wicked handsome stranger left the way he came
Broke her heart and broke her mind
She never was the same
They say he was the devil
That had come to steal her soul
She never loved another it was told
