Angel From Montgomery

I am an old woman named after my mother

My old man is another child that's grown old

If dreams were thunder and lightning was desire

This old house would've burnt 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 living is just a hard way to go

When i was a young girl i had me a cowboy,

Wa'n't much to look at, just a free ramblin' man

But that was a long time, and no matter how i try,

The years just flow 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 living is just a hard way to go

There's flies in the kitchen, i can hear all their buzzin'

But i ain't done nothin' since i woke up today

I am kind of person goes to work in the morning

Come home in the evenin' and have nothin' 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 living is just a hard way to go

To believe in this living is just a hard way to go
