I am an old woman named after my mother
My old man is another child thats grown old
If dreams were thunder lightning was desire
This old house would have burnt down a long time ago
(Chorus)
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
(Instrumental break)
(Verse 2)
When I was a young girl well, I had me a cowboy
He wasnt much to look at, just free rambling man
But that was such a long time and no matter how I try
The years just flow by like a broken down dam.
(Chorus)
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
(Instrumental Break)
(Verse 3)
Theres flies in the kitchen I can hear all their buzzing
And I aint done nothing since I woke up today.
How the hell can a person go to work in the morning
And come home in the evening and have nothing to say.
(Chorus)
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
