susan tedeshi - angel from montgomery lyrics
(written by john prine)
i am an old woman
named after my mother
my old man is another
child that’s grown old
if dreams were thunder
and lightnin’ was desire
this old house would’a burned down
a long time ago
make me an angel, to fly from montgomery
make me a poster, of an old rodeo
just give me one thing, i can hold onto
to believe in this living is just a, hard way to go
when i was a young girl
i had me a cowboy
he wasn’t much to look at
just a free ramblin’ man
aw, but that was a long time
and no matter how i try
those years they just flow by
like a broken-down dam
make me an angel, to fly from montgomery
make me a poster, of an old rodeo
just give me one thing, i can hold onto
to believe in this living is just a, hard way to go
there’s flies in the kitchen
i can hear ’em a-buzzin
but i ain’t done nothin
since i woke up today
how the h-ll can a person
go to work in the mornin’
and come home in the evenin’
and have nothin’ to say?
make me an angel, to fly from montgomery
make me a poster, of an old rodeo
just give me one thing, i can hold onto
to believe in this living is just a, hard way to go
