I am an old woman Named after my mother My old man is another Child who's grown old If dreams were thunder And lightning was desire This old house would have 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 When I was a young girl Well, I had me a cowboy He weren't much to look at Just a free ramblin man But that was such a long time No matter, no matter how I try Those years had 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, Lord 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
