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
Wasn't much to look at
Just a free ramblin' man
But that was a long time
And No matter how i try
The years they 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 them they're buzzin'
And i ain't done nothing
since i woke up today
How the hell can a person
Go on 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
a hard way
to go
