Manfred Mann’s Earth Band - Angels at My Gate lyrics

There's a finger on the dial
The lucky wheel goes 'round
Little joker knows he can't escape
The same time every year
The fun fair's back in town
Numbers in the air like ticker tape

58, 56, 54 good angels at my door
63, 62, 61, 60, 59, 58
Good angels at my gate

Throw a seven down place another bet
The joker laughs as the stakes get higher
The gambler and the clown
Without a safety net
Balancing unsteady on a wire

58, 56, 54 good angels at my door
63, 62, 61, 60, 59, 58
Good angels at my gate

There's a finger on the dial
The lucky wheel goes 'round
Little joker knows he can't escape
The same time every year
The fun fair's back in town
Numbers in the air like ticker tape

58, 56, 54 good angels at my door
63, 62, 61, 60, 59, 58
Good angels at my gate
59, 58, 57, 56, 55, 54
Good angels at my door
63, 62, 61, 60, 59, 58
Good angels at my gate
59, 58, 57, 56, 55, 54
