[00:21.60]I am an old woman named after my mother
[00:28.27]My old man is another child that's grown old
[00:35.70]If dreams were lightning thunder was desire
[00:42.78]This old house would have burnt down a long time ago
[00:50.12]Make me an angel that flies from Montgom'ry
[00:57.21]Make me a poster of an old rodeo
[01:04.48]Just give me one thing that I can hold on to
[01:11.45]To believe in this living is just a hard way to go
[01:24.22]When I was a young girl well, I had me a cowboy
[01:32.04]He weren't much to look at, just free rambling man
[01:39.53]But that was a long time and no matter how I try
[01:46.50]The years just flow by like a broken down dam.
[01:53.72]Make me an angel that flies from Montgom'ry
[02:00.77]Make me a poster of an old rodeo
[02:07.68]Just give me one thing that I can hold on to
[02:14.82]To believe in this living is just a hard way to go
[02:51.39]There's flies in the kitchen I can hear 'em there buzzing
[02:54.77]And I ain't done nothing since I woke up today.
[03:05.48]How the hell can a person go to work in the morning
[03:12.94]And come home in the evening and have nothing to say.
[03:19.84]Make me an angel that flies from Montgom'ry
[03:27.22]Make me a poster of an old rodeo
[03:34.29]Just give me one thing that I can hold on to
[03:41.35]To believe in this living is just a hard way to go
[03:50.18]To believe in this living is just a hard way to go
