Angel From Montgomery
Bonnie Raitt and John Prine
[Verse]
I am an old wo
man, named aft
er my mother
My old man is
another child
that's grown o
ld
If dreams were
thunder and l
ightning was d
esire
This old house
would have bu
rnt down a lon
g time ago
[Chorus]
Make me an ang
el that flies
from Montgomer
y
Make me a post
er of an old r
odeo
Just give me o
ne thing that
I can hold on
to
To believe in
this living is
just a hard w
ay to go
[Verse]
When I was a y
oung girl, had
me a cowboy
Wasn't much to
look at, just
a free rambli
n' man
But that was a
long time, an
d no matter ho
w I try
The years just
flow by like
a broken down
dam
[Chorus]
Make me an ang
el that flies
from Montgomer
y
Make me a post
er of an old r
odeo
Just give me o
ne thing that
I can hold on
to
To believe in
this living is
just a hard w
ay to go
[Verse]
There's flies
in the kitchen
, I can hear '
em buzzin'
But I ain't do
ne nothin'...s
ince I woke up
today
How the hell c
an a person, g
o to work in t
he mornin'
Come home in t
he evenin', an
d have nothin'
to say
[Chorus]
Make me an ang
el that flies
from Montgomer
y
Make me a post
er of an old r
odeo
Just give me o
ne thing that
I can hold on
to
To believe in
this living is
just a hard w
ay to go
