Dave Matthews Band - Angel From Montgomery lyrics
[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
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
