Angel from Montgomery

I am an old woman

Named after my mother

An old man is another

Child whos grown old

If dreams were thunder

Lightning was desire

This old house it wouldve burned down

A long time ago

Make me an angel

That flies from montgomery

Make me a poster

Of an old rodeo

Just give me one thing

That I can hold on to

To believe in this livin

Is just a hard way to go

When I was a young girl

I had me a cowboy

It wasnt much to look at

It was a free ramblin man

There was a long time

No matter how I tried

The years they just rolled by

Like a broken down dance

Make me an angel

That flies from montgomery

Make me a poster

Of an old rodeo

Just give me one thing

That I can hold on to

To believe in this live inIs just a hard way to go

Theres flies in the kitchen

I can hear them there buzzin

And I aint done nothing since I woke up today

But how the hell can a person

Go on to work in the morning

To come home in the evening

And have nothing to say

Make me an angel

That flies from montgomery

Make me a poster

Of an old rodeo

Just give me one thing

That I can hold on to

To believe in this livin

Is just a hard way to go
