Lyrics Angels from Montgomery - John Denver
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.
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
There's
flies
in
the
kitchen
I
can
hear
'em
in
there
buzzin'
And
I
ain't
done
nothin'
Since
I
woke
up
today.
How
the
hell
can
a
person
Go
to
work
in
the
mornin'
Come
home
in
the
evenin'
And
have
nothin'
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
livin'
is
just
a
hard
way
to
go
(Repeat
Chorus)
