Angel From Montgomery John Prine I am an old woman Named after my mother, My old man is another Child that's grown old If dreams were lightning And thunder were desire 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 livin' 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 ramblin' man. But that was a long time And no matter how I try, The years just flow by Like a broken down dam.
