Mindy McCready - Ten Thousand Angels Lyrics






Speakin of the devil
Look who just walked in
He knows just where to find me
Here we go again
I can tell he's gonna ask me to dance
Thats not as far as he wants to go
I need ten thousand angels
To help me tell him no

[Chorus:]
Lead me not into temptation
Heaven help me to be strong
I can fight all that I'm feelin
But I can't do it alone
Help me break this spell that I'm under
Guide my feet and hold me tight
I need ten thousand angels
watchin over me tonight

It's time to face my weakness
Look him in the eye
Lord knows it wont be easy
but I've just gotta try
I cant let myself get lost in his arms
Thats how i got my heart broke before
I need ten thousand angels
To walk me out the door

[Repeat Chorus]

I need ten thousand angels
Watchin over me tonight

Ten thousand angels watchin over me tonight
[Repeat]

    O Mindy is dead? I'm 44 and the only reason I listen to this is because it only brings back good memories when I learned about girls. Besides, Mindy is 🔥!!!!!!

    Mandy are voice leaves on. Are songs was really big in the 90!!!!! Jan 3 2020. Friday

  35. T.... P....

    Sometimes you just need one

  36. A.... G....

    I can not help but ask where were 10 thousand angels to jam that freaking gun that day she would have got her boys back hope was not lost

    A.... G....

    She felt in that moment she was lost couldn't imagine life without my kids i dont think i would have been able to go on either...

  37. F.... U....

    I was never depressed until my husband cheated. Especially when i felt not good enough and he blamed me. Pretty sure that's what happened to her as well. So, all you soul less cheaters out there that lead your partner to believe you're happy af well.... remember, it will crush them. It will destroy their whole being. Be honest. Upfront. Dont try to hide it, and don't keep going back to the affair partner unless you know for sure that you don't want the original partner. TELL THEM. I found out For myself. By myself. Dealing with it by myself, he still denies, blames, and will not own up to it, nor will he explain himself. He just says i am trying to make him feel bad, when I'm not. I am just trying to save myself, because i keep getting closer to giving up every day. I don't hardly know myself anymore, and honestly it always bothers me.

    F.... U....

    No one ever cheats because its your fault u are not the one with the problem they are and u have to believe that ...sometimes we just get with the wrong person and it literally drains the life right out of u .. but theres always someone else out there u just need to heal but its worth it i promise u and remember gods promise his promise is not that he wont allow bad things to happen his promise is that he will be becide of u when they do

  38. P.... L....

    She shot the dog so fuck her

  39. F.... F....

    Rip to my Sagittarius ♐️ angel

  40. E.... M....

    I love this song, so beautiful, hi from México.

  41. L.... S....

    Rest in Peace Mindy McCready you will be missed

  42. C.... D....

    Mindy was on Dr. Drew Penski celebrity rehabilitation she seemed like such a sweet PERSON. Sad we are listening to her music and she has left this world. Prayers for her sons. Prayers for all that struggle.

  43. A.... B....

    Me and my nana used to dance and sing to this song miss her so much

  44. B.... L....

    I actually Believe that man is above the angels.

  45. F.... Q....

    Her voice was incredible. I am a DJ and worked in the club and mobile arenas when this song was new. She clearly made an impact on the music industry.

  46. C.... G....

    Trump needs 10,000 angels now!

  47. C.... e....

    Happy Belated Birthday to the late Malinda Gayle McCready.11-30-75.FL

  48. C.... H....

    She was beautiful and talented. If only she had been able to resist the dark forces which took her life. God rest her.

  49. P.... C....

    heres a example of someone sold there for a hit

  50. P.... C....

    you thought so little about your gift

  51. D.... B....

    what a shame to lose her...

  52. J.... S....

  54. r.... 7....

    The human mind can be a very dangerous thing, especially when it starts thinking on the wrong track, r.i.p young lady....

    r.... 7....

    I live in peace, with God's protection

    r.... 7....

    A deceitful mind is dangerous. It can weaken one's SOUL. But your perception is interesting, none the less

  55. M.... ....

    This is one of those people whom I assume would have been far better off had they never gotten famous and/or had ever got to know anyone who was famous.
    R.I.P. Mindy McCready.

  56. F.... G....

    I Think Ten Thousand Angels Could Fit It In SBR Finale Ending

  57. B.... B....

    I listened to this song a lot during detox and early recovery. If you take the first line, "Speaking of the Devil, look who just walked in" as "The literal Devil just walked in", this song is a pretty good view of what it's like to try and get clean, but having that past constantly running you down. Sometimes it really does take 10,000 angels just to walk you out the door when the Devil comes around.

  58. F.... *....

    😇 Receive Thy Wings Mindy 😇

    I wish I could have helped her, let her know how important she was, how much she impacted so many people

    C.... S....

    She is so much more happy now in paradise with jesus. You will understand when you get there.

  62. D.... B....

    She has her 10,000 Angel's and more. Tragic waste. Pure beauty lost.

  63. J.... P....

    What a song that girls should wait. I always did'nt! I regret it, I'm 41 now. Girls take a lesson from Mindy. 🌫️

  72. D.... W....

    So sad to see all the sweet comments below.....if she only held on longer she could have learned how much she was loved and admired for her talent and heart. Her boys needed her....just goes to show mental illness can take anyone. Reach out to those you love....check on your friends. Make sure they know they are loved....even one person's outreach can make a difference. Believe me I know from personal experience.

  73. P.... N....

    taken before her time , truly the voice of angel, oh why did god want it back with him , so talented

  74. N.... S....

    She was already asking for help. How dumb can we get ...

  76. A.... W....

    Where are my angels? I'm thinking about asking him if I can still come home.

    A.... W....

    Don’t give up the fight, life is precious, please get help, you are special and beautiful, angels are watching and protecting you, they are there with you now... please get help 🙏🎀

  77. A.... C....

    I hate country (ironically all of the gorgeous women I've met love country). I can deal with listening to this type of country. Today's country is horrible. If I want to listen to pop/rock, I will.

  78. A.... G....

    Wow this song is so haunting now. I've loved it since it came out and it has still remained a favorite. God bless Mindy and her family.
    My bf (at the time) and friends insisted on going out to karaoke night across the street the day she died. I sang this.

  79. F.... R....

    God bless her, I loved her very much'

  80. D.... M....

    She had a sweet voice and was a great talent. It's too bad she was so screwed up. :(

  81. R.... K....

    Soooo sad. SUICIDE the 10th leading cause of death in the usa

  82. T.... E....

    I feel like this song expresses her pain she was suffering, being this was written before her death and i believe she was gone before the song took off to number 1.

    T.... E....

    You are wrong,this was her break out hit,she lived about 13 14 yrs after the song got as high as it did,her troubles started years way after the song was gone from the charts.

    T.... E....

    @Giovanni Socci yeah i researched it after i said this my point was her career was begun with a song that speaks of heartache and looking up for answers, i think this song is just an erie foreshadowing of her troubles in life.

    T.... E....

    @TheTrucker Ed Show She was a beautiful girl,but probably very full of herself,she dated famous and not so famous guys,and she was dumped most of the time,her life wasn t any more special than any other ham and egger's,she lost her fame,and her grip on reality as well....She can be regarded as a One hit wonder,and it fits.

  83. D.... E....

    Rip😥

  84. C.... H....

    I bet this song is all about Roger! Been there!

  85. C.... H....

    RIP girl! I hope Roger gets what he desevers! I believe you girl!

  86. D.... B....

    Such a tragic loss, what a beautiful voice.

  87. A.... P....

    FUCK I miss Her!! She's a Viking Goddess..

  88. R.... S....

    Except for Patsy Cline; the Worst Tragedy in Country Music!!

  89. D.... L....

    I can relate to this song! Great song she was an awesome singer.

  90. C.... ....

    Still missing you, and my twenty bucks...

    C.... ....

    Mtherfkr if you cant live without $20 you suck at life!!!!!!!!

  91. s.... c....

    I met her once.she was friends with my neighbor. She was really nice. I was sad when I heard of her passing.

    s.... c....

  94. T.... W....

    Thank you

  95. S.... D....

    She was so beautiful and sweet and sexy and sassy too. She could really make a person's heart pound and my temperature rise. She was really great. It is so sad that she is no longer around. She is dearly loved and sadly missed
