Ben Harper - Angel From Montgomery lyrics

I am an old woman named after my mother Old man is another child (that's) grown old If dreams were thunder and lightning was desire This old house 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 living is just a hard way to go I was a young girl I had me a cowboy Wasn't much to look at, just a free ramblin' man That was a long time, (and) no matter how I try The years just flow by like a broken-down dam 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 There's flies in the kitchen, I can hear all their buzzin' I ain't done nothin' since I woke up today How the hell can a person go to work in the morning And come home in the evenin' and have nothin' 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 living is just a hard way to go To believe in this living is just a hard way to go
