|
I am an old woman named after my mother |
|
My old man is another child that's grown old |
|
If dreams were lightning thunder was desire |
|
This old house would have burnt down a long time ago |
|
Chorus: |
|
Make me an angel that flies from Montgom'ry |
|
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 free rambling man |
|
But that was a long time and no matter how I try |
|
The years just flow by like a broken down dam. |
|
Repeat Chorus: |
|
There's flies in the kitchen I can hear 'em there buzzing |
|
And I ain't done nothing since I woke up today. |
|
How the hell can a person go to work in the morning |
|
And come home in the evening and have nothing to say. |
|
Repeat Chorus: |
