Angel from Montgomery

I am an old woman
 Named after my mother
 My old man's another child that's grown old, yeah
 If love was like lightnin'
 And thunder desire
 This whole house would have burnt down
 A long time ago, yeah
 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, yeah
 When I was a young girl
 I had me a cowboy
 He weren't much to look at
 Just a free ramblin' man
 But that was a long time
 No matter how I tried
 These dreams do go by
 Like a broken down dam
 Make me an angel
 That flies from Montgomery
 Make me a poster
 Of an old rodeo, yeah
 Just give me one thing
 That I can hold on to
 To believe in this livin'
 Is just a hard way to go, so
 There's flies in the kitchen
 I can hear 'em buzzin'
 I ain't done nothin' since I woke up today, yeah
 How the hell can a person
 Go to work in the mornin'
 Come home in the evenin'
 Have nothin' to say
 Make me an angel
 That flies from Montgomery
 Make me a poster
 Of an old rodeo, yeah
 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
