Anna Sheridan - Angel From Montgomery lyrics

rate me

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

When I was a young girl

When 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 flew by

Like a broken down dam

(Repeat Chorus)

There's flies in the kitchen

I can hear all them buzzin'

And I ain't done nothing

Since I woke up today

But how can a person

Go to work in the morning

And come home in the evening

And have nothing to say

(Repeat Chorus)

To believe in this livin'

Is just a hard way to go
