  • Do you think I'm such a fool
    To believe everything you say is true
    That just goes to show
    That you really don't know

    And while you're out painting the town
    Do you think I'm home just sitting around
    Waiting on you
    Now who's really the fool

    When I first found out I hurt all over
    I felt so left out till I got to know her
    So I tried the way that she got over
    And I became just like her
    So don't be surprised to find

    That the angel in your arms this morning
    Is gonna be the devil in someone else's arms tonight
    Yes, the angel in your arms this morning
    Is gonna be the devil in someone else's arms tonight

    Why'd you slip around secretly
    If you were tired of loving me
    Why'd you keep holding on
    When love was already gone

    The times you said you weren't feeling well
    Did you think I couldn't tell
    You'd been with someone else
    You were only kidding yourself

    When I first found out I hurt all over
    I felt so left out till I got to know her
    So I tried the way that she got over
    And I became just like her so don't be surprised to find

    That the angel in your arms this morning
    Is gonna be the devil in someone else's arms tonight
    Yes, the angel in your arms this morning
    Is gonna be the devil in someone else's arms tonight Writer/s: HERBERT CLAYTON IVEY, HOWARD THOMAS BRASFIELD JR., TERRY WOODFORD

  • Julie from Home love the 70's
  • Joe from Watauga, TxHOT was on Solid Gold after their hit, "Angel In Your Arms". I have seen NO explanation as to why this was allowed when they'd already had a hit single.
  • Dave from Wheaton, IlWhen WLS made a tape cart of it, they actually recorded it, a step lower than the actual speed of the song.
  • Barry from Sauquoit, NyOn May 7th, 1977, Hot performed "Angel In Your Arms" on the ABC-TV program 'American Bandstand'...
    Three months earlier on February 13th, 1977 it entered Billboard's Hot Top 100 chart at position #90; and on July 10th it peaked at #6 (for 2 weeks) and spent over a half-year on the Top 100 (27 weeks)...
    It took 15 weeks to reach #13, then it worked its way up the chart one position at a time, next came #12, then #11, #10, #9, #8, #7, finally to two weeks at #6 (then it fell to #16)...
    The trio had two other Top 100 records; "The Right Feeling At The Wrong Time (#65 in 1977) and "You Brought The Woman Out of Me" (#71 in 1978).
