Angel From Montgomery - Live

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

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

And no matter how I tried

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 on to

To believe in this livin'

Is just a hard way to go

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?

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

To believe in this livin'

Is just the hard way to go
