Angel From Montgomery [Live] [7'' Version]

I am an old woman named after my mother

My old man is another child who's grown old

If dreams were thunder, 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 a hard way to go
