Farewell Andromeda

I am an old woman, named after my mother 
 Old man is another child that’s grown old 
 If dreams were lightning and thunder were desire 
 This old house would have 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 onto 
 To believe in this livin’ is just a hard way to go 
 When I was a young girl I had me a cowboy 
 Weren’t much to look at just a free ramblin’ man 
 But that was a long time 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 onto 
 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 
 And 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 onto 
 To believe in this livin’ is just a hard way to go 
 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 onto 
 To believe in this livin’ is just a hard way to go
