1990's "Don't Cry Too Hard"

I am an old woman named after my mother

My old man is another child thats grown old

If dreams were lightning thunder was desire

This old house would have burnt 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 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 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.

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 living is just a hard way to go

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

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 living 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 on to

To believe in this living is just a hard way to go

To believe in this living is just a hard way to go

saw them in 1990 in san francisco at The Holy Cow. Great crowd. Then saw them at Nietche's in Buffalo with a dozen in audience. They were confused.

@VelcroBanana I wonder if they got that name from the old Buster Brown shoe commercials: Here's Buster Brown He lives in a shoe Here's his dog "Tag" He lives in there too

This is one of those out of the mainstream albums that a friend of mine had years ago...and I have been looking for this version of 'Angel from Montgomery' ever since. Very cool. Thank you for posting this song.

Gosh, saw them at the Horseshoe in Toronto around '93, it was a good time. Thought they had some talent, wonder where she is now...
