Carly Simon - Angel From Montgomery 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 lightening was desire Then this old house Would have burnt 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 When I was a young girl I had me a cowboy He weren't much to look at Just a free rambling man But that was a long time And no matter how I try Well 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 '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 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
