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 lightning
 And thunder were 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
 Well, I had me a cowboy
 He weren't much to look at
 Just a free ramblin' man
 But that was a long time
 And no matter how I tried
 The years just flowed 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
 ♪
 There's flies in the kitchen
 I can hear 'em there buzzin'
 And I ain't done nothing
 Since I woke up today
 How the hell can a person
 Go to work in the morning
 Then 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
