She’s in the kitchen At the crack of dawn Bacon’s on, Coffee’s strong Kids running wild, Taking off their clothes If she’s a nervous wreck, Well it never shows |
Takes one to football And one to dance Hits the Y For aerobics class Drops by the bank, Stops at the store Has on a smile When I walk through the door |
The last to go to bed, She’ll be the first one up And I thought I was tough |
She’s strong, Pushes on, Can’t slow her down She can take anything life dishes out There was a time Back before she was mine When I thought I was tough |
We sat there Five years ago The doctors let us know, The test showed She’d have to fight to live, I broke down and cried She held me and said, “It’s gonna be alright” |
She wore that wig to church Pink ribbon pin there On her shirt No room for fear, Full of faith Hands held high Singing, ‘Amazing Grace’ |
Never once complained Refusing to give up And I thought I was tough |
She’s strong, Pushes on, Can’t slow her down She can take anything life dishes out There was a time Back before she was mine When I thought I was tough |
She’s a gentle word, The sweetest kiss A velvet touch Against my skin I’ve seen her cry, I’ve seen her break But in my eyes She’ll always be strong |
There was a time Back before she was mine When I thought I was tough |
