Biography:
The Statler Brothers were an American country music vocal group founded in 1955 in Staunton, Virginia.
Originally performing gospel music at local churches, the group billed themselves as The Four Star Quartet, and later The Kingsmen. In 1963, when the song "Louie, Louie" by the garage rock band also called The Kingsmen became famous, the group elected to bill themselves as The Statler Brothers. Despite the name, only two members of the group (Don and Harold Reid) are actual brothers and none have the surname of "Statler".

C D7
She came to me shortly after Christmas
F G7 C
Said she hated spoiling New Year's Eve
D7
But the truth doesn't wait to come in season
F G7 C
And what we had feared was now believed
D7
She said she'd leave come Monday mornin'
F G7 C
Catch a plane if I'd split the fare
D7
She said she had friends in New York City
F G7 C
She'd look them up and have the baby there
F C
And now she's alone in New York City
F C
Livin' like Lord I wonder how
Am D7
An angel in hell in New York City
F G7 C
But I can't think about that now
D7
Honey will you tell him Bible stories
F G7 C
And give him all the love I never could
D7
But never tell him too much about his daddy
F G7 C
Cause there's not much to say that's good
D7
He'll have to learn it all from his mother
F G7 C
How to count and say his ABC's
D7
But when you teach him prayers to say at bedtime
F G7 C
Leave off God bless daddy won't you please
F C
And now they're alone in New York City
F C
Livin' like Lord I wonder how
Am D7
Two angels in hell in New York City
F G7 C
But I can't think about that now
F G7 C
I can't think about that now
