John Prine - Angel from Montgomery lyrics



I am an old woman
Named after my mother
My old man is another
Child that's grown old
If dreams were lightning
And thunder were desire
This old house would have burnt down
A long time ago

Make me an angel
That flies from Montgomery
Make me a poster from 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 try
The years just flow by
Like a broken down dam

Make me an angel
That flies from Montgomery
Make me a poster from 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 'em there buzzin'
And I ain't done nothin'
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 from 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
