Lyrics of 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 lightnin' 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 onto
To believe in this livin' is just a hard way to go

When i was a young girl, well, i had me a cowboy
Weren'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 onto
To believe in this livin' is just a hard way to go

There's flies in the kitchen, i can hear 'em in there buzzin'
And i ain't done nothin' since i woke up today
How the hell can a person go to work in the mornin'
And 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 onto
To believe in this livin' is just a hard way to go
To believe in this livin' is just a hard way to go
