West coast meets east coast ...

Cheri had thoughts that this wonderful John Prine tune might be just the ticket as a collaboration with me. I was leery, not having heard the song until researching it a little.

After eliciting Rick's generous help (and endless patience with me), the project was complete and I must admit ... I really love the way it turned out. Hoping you enjoy it as much!

Thank you Cheri for being the "angel" you are...
Thank you to Rick for putting all the pieces in exactly the right places ... what a wonderful friend!

And as always, thank you for listening!

Angel From Montgomery

I am an old woman
Named after my mother
My old man is another
Child whos grown old

If dreams were thunder
Lightning was desire
This old house it wouldve 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
I had me a cowboy
It wasnt much to look at
It was a free ramblin man
There was a long time
No matter how I tried
The years they just rolled 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

Theres flies in the kitchen
I can hear them there buzzin
And I aint done nothing since I woke up today
But how the hell can a person
Go on to work in the morning
To 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
