Angel from Montgomery - Jesse Jo Stark

I am an old woman named after my mother

My old man is another child that’s grown old

If dreams were lightning thunder was desire

This old house would have burnt down a long time ago

Chorus:

Make me an angel that flies from montgom’ry

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 When I was a young girl well, I had me a cowboy

He weren’t much to look at, just free rambling man

But that was a long time and no matter how I try

The years just flow by like a broken down dam.

Repeat chorus:

There’s flies in the kitchen I can hear 'em there buzzing

And I ain’t done nothing since I woke up today.

How the hell can a person go to work in the morning

And come home in the evening and have nothing to say.

Repeat chorus:
