Artist/Band: Bonnie Raitt
Lyrics for Song: Angel From Montgomery
Lyrics for Album: The Essentials [WEA International] [2005]



Verse 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



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 livin'

is just a hard way to go



Verse 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



(chorus)



Verse 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



(chorus)
