[1] I am an old [4] woman [1] named after my [4] mother
[1] My old man is a-[4]-nother [5] child that's grown [1] old [5]
[1] If dreams were [4] lightning, [1] thunder were de-[4]-sire
[1] This old house would have [4] burnt down a [5] long time a-[1]-go [5]

[1] Make me an [^b7] angel that [4] flies from Mont-[1]-gomery
Make me a [^b7] poster of an [4] old rode-[1]-o [5]
Just give me [^b7] one thing that [4] I can hold on [1] to
To believe in this [4] livin' is just a [5] hard way to [1] 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 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
