I heard this song when I was youngish. Perhpaps a bit too counry for my taste at the time, but....simply something my brain would not quite let go of. Years later I had to seek it out. I knew I had to play it. No way I'm hitting this level, but ya gotta try.
Ah request time! Haha Just shout 'em out Angel from Montgomery and Good Times Okay, I'ma do 'em both simultaneously In the same key This for prosperity huh They'll say boy that kid sure took a long time To tune his guitar This is about a woman thinking about her old man While he's at work 'Cause she ain't got time to think about him When he's home I am an old woman Named after my mother My old man is another Child who's grown old If dreams were lightning And thunder were desire This old house would've burned 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 Well, 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 tried The years just flowed 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 there buzzin' 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? 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

Hmmm. Lovely performance of this song. Wondering why you didn't put your name in the video title and Bonnie Raitt's name in the credits...

Ah request time! Haha
Just shout 'em out
Angel from Montgomery and Good Times
Okay, I'ma do 'em both simultaneously
In the same key
This for prosperity huh
They'll say boy that kid sure took a long time
To tune his guitar
This is about a woman thinking about her old man
While he's at work
'Cause she ain't got time to think about him
When he's home
I am an old woman
Named after my mother
My old man is another
Child who's grown old
If dreams were lightning
And thunder were desire
This old house would've burned 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
Well, 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 tried
The years just flowed 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 there buzzin'
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?
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

Named after my mother
My old man is another
Child that's grown old
If dreams were thunder
And lightning was desire
