lyrics

I am an old woman named after my mother
My old man is another child that's grown old
If dreams were thunder and lightning was desire
This old house would've burnt 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 living is just a hard way to go

(Verse 2)

When I was a young girl I had me a cowboy
Wasn't much to look at, just a free ramblin' man
But that was a long time, and no matter how I try
The years just flow 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 living is just a hard way to go

(Interlude)

(Verse 3)

There's flies in the kitchen, I can hear them a-buzzin'
But I ain't done nothin' since I woke up today
How the hell can a person go to work in the morning
Come home in the evenin', they got nothin' 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 living is just a hard way to go

(Outro)
To believe in this living is just a hard way to go
