Bonnie Raitt - Angel From Montgomery lyrics

rate me

I am an old woman

named after my mother

an old man is another

child who's grown old

If dreams were thunder

lightning 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

I had me a cowboy

it wasn't much to look at

it was a free ramblin' man

There was a long time

no matter how I tried

the years they just rolled by

like a broken down dance

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 them there buzzin'

And I ain't done nothing since I woke up today

But how the hell can a person

go on to work in the morning

to 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
