bonnie raitt - angel from montgomery lyrics
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 wasn’t much to look at
just a free ramblin’ man
but that was a long time
and no matter how i tried
the years they just rolled by
like a broken down dam
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 3
there’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 h-ll can a person
go on to work in the morning
come home in the evening
and have nothing to say
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
