Dave Matthews Band - Angel From Montgomery lyrics

I am an old woman, named after my mother
My old man is another, child that's grown old
If dreams were lightning, 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 from 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 a 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
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
