Angel from Montgomery

1 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 2 When I was a young girl I had me a cowboy He weren't much to look at Just a free ramblin' man That was a long time and no matter how I tried the years just flow by like a broken down dam () 3 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 ()
