    I need a name of the artist and the name of the song that has the lyrics of these is it, "Angel Getting Tired." It is a Country/ Western song, maybe back in the 60's or early 70's , not sure, why I am here....thanks .

    This probably isn't it, however, I'll post it anyway. Cannot find any lyrics with the words "Angel Getting Tired".

    Pam Tillis "Homeward Looking Angel"

    She saw the ragged edge of nowhere from a fast moving train
    Watched the scenery fly by with a fever in her brain
    Seemed like a good time at the time, rolling down that track
    Now the only thing she wants is a one-way ticket back
    She's a homeward looking angel and she's feeling mighty tired
    Her party dress is tattered but her vision is inspired
    And that girl looking back in the mirror, Lord, made such a mess of things
    And she's leaving in the morning soon as she can find her wings
    Soon as she can find her wings
    She's so very hungry for a piece of Mama's pie
    Served up on Grandma's china after church on Sunday night
    Oh, now Papa's probably turning out the lights and heading up the stairs
    And the wayward child he never talks about still turns up in his prayers
    She's a homeward looking angel and she must be feeling mighty tired
    Her party dress is tattered but her vision is inspired
    And that girl looking back in the mirror, Lord, made such a mess of things
    And she's leaving in the morning soon as she can find her wings
    There's a road ahead and a road behind
    All roads lead to home this time
    She's a homeward looking angel and she's feeling mighty tired
    She went gunning for glory but her bullets all misfired
    And that girl looking back in the mirror, Lord, made such a mess of things
    And she's leaving in the morning soon as she can find her wings
    Soon as she can find her wings
    Homeward looking angel

    I don't know if it's a cover version, but the Derailers did this song. It's called "My Angel's Gettin' Tired".
