The song is called ME AND A COUPLE OF ANGELS and it's on Tom Paxton's album "Looking for the Moon," Appleseed CD #1069, 2002. I was able to transcribe this much from a sound sample, but that's all:

...You got me and a couple o' angels, baby, watchin' over you.
We're over here at the side of the road you travel.
We're here to see your path is trouble-free....

and these are the lyrics:

ME AND A COUPLE OF ANGELS

The paper hits the front porch
As the newsboy's out there making his early rounds
And when he's gone, the silence creeps back in
With quiet summer morning sounds
You roll onto your other side
You smile as if a new dream's coming through
It's just me and a couple of angels, baby
Watching over you.

I love to see you sleeping, baby
Love to see you get the rest you need
And nothing's gonna bother you
Your peace and quiet's triple-guaranteed
So walk on down your Sunday street
Just look around 'cause we'll be walking too
You've got me and a couple of angels, baby
Watching over you

We're over here
At the side of the road you're travelling
We're here to see your path is trouble-free
May your dreams be everything
you need your dreams to be
And when you wake
May mine be the first face you see

The sun is up and shining
So I've pulled the shades to keep the light at bay
To stretch your night out longer
Till you're rested and you're ready for your day
We're here because we love you
And to love you well is all we want to do
So it's me and a couple of angels, baby
Watching over you.

You've got me and a couple of angels, baby
Watching over you
