angel from montgomery -
I am an old woman Named after my mother My old man is another Child who's grown old  If dreams were thunder And lightning was desire This old house would've 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 He wasn't much to look at Just a free ramblin' man That was a long time And no matter how I tried Those years just flown by Like a broken down dam  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  And there's flies in the kitchen I can hear all their buzzin' And I ain't done nothing since I woke up today How the hell can a person Go to work in the morning 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  To believe in this livin' Is just a hard way to go
