“Chatter with the Angels”
 

Chatter with the angels soon in the morning,
Chatter with the angels all day long.

Chatter with the angels soon in the morning,
Chatter with the angels all day long.

I hope to join that band and
Chatter with the angels all day long.
I hope to join that band and
Chatter with the angels all day long.
