MP3 of Angela

Angela
Written and Sung by Chris Curry

I’ve got a friend her name is Angela
We have fun and we play
I met her at my Uncle’s farm
Wish I’d go there every day
You know he has dogs and he has cows
And he has cats and I like that
Oh I wish I’d go there every day

Everybody needs somebody
Waiting down at the farm
And Angela is waiting for me
And we are gonna have fun
Everybody needs somebody
Just to call a friend
Someone when your day is blue
Will brighten it up again

And I’ve got a friend her name is Angela
We have fun and we play
I met her at my Uncle’s farm
I wish I’d go there everyday
You know he has dogs and he has cows
He has cats and I like that
Oh I wish I’d go there every day

Everybody needs somebody
To see things their way
And Angela’s that kind of person
Needless to say
Everybody needs somebody
Just to hang around
Wipe a tear, bring out a giggle
Or rearrange a frown

And I’ve got a friend her name is Angela
We have fun and we play
I met her at my Uncle’s farm
Wish I’d go there every day
You know he has dogs and he has cows
He has cats and I like that
Oh I wish I’d go there every day

I’ve got a friend her name is Angela
We have fun and we play
I met her my Uncle’s farm
Wish I’d go there every day
You know he has dogs and he has cows
He has cats and I like that
Oh I wish I’d go there every day.
