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 it 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 2When I was a young girl
I had me a cowboy
He wasn't much to look at
He was a free ramblin' man
That was a long time
And no matter how i tried
The years they just rolled by
Like a broken down [dam?]dance
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 3There's flies in the kitchen
I can hear them there buzzin'
And I ain't done nothing since I woke up today
But how the hell can a person
Go on to work in the morning
Come home in the evening
And have nothing to say
Chorusmake 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
