Lyrics
Valley green, mountain white
Ocean blue and beaches bright
Heavenly just to be
In Angeltown
Sunny days, starry nights
Miles and miles of sparkling lights
Shiny new, all for you
In Angeltown
Once you wander through its byways
Then you never can depart
In a thousand sweet and sly ways
It will win your heart
Settle down, build your fence
Here the future’s present tense
Room for all and we call it
Angeltown
Valley green, mountain white
Ocean blue and beaches bright
Heavenly just to be
In Angeltown
Sunny days, starry nights
Miles and miles of sparkling lights
Shiny new, all for you
In Angeltown
Once you wander through its byways
Then you never can depart
In a thousand sweet and sly ways
It will win your heart
Find your love, bring her here
Honeymoon it ’round the year
Heaven waits at the gates of
Angeltown
