john prine - angel from montgomery lyrics

Loading...

i am an old woman
named after my mother
my old man is another
child who’s grown old

if dreams were lightning
thunder was desire
this old house it 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
well, 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 just flowed 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 ’em there buzzin’
and i ain’t done nothing
since i woke up today

but how the h-ll can a person
go to work in the morning
then 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
