Chalee Tennison - I Am Pretty lyrics

rate me

She woke up one Sunday morning

She said a prayer and asked

For strength

She put her makeup on just perfect

And for the first time in a long time

The mirror showed her grace

She heard him stirring in the kitchen

Last nights whiskey in the air

She could hear him carrying on and cussing

And then the woman in the mirror said

You gotta get out of here

'Cause you've been

Broken down

Kicked around

One too many times

You finally found the strength

And he ain't gonna break my faith

She said I, I might go back to school

I know you take me for a fool

Despite what you say

Something occured to me today

Guess what

I am pretty

He took a drag off his cigarette

With that patronizing look

On his face

And he said

Ah here we go again

Got that little suitcase in your hand

Let me guess

You're gonna find your dreams today

And she said

You know, I just might

But either way

I'm gonna get out

I'm gonna get out of this god forsaken place

'Cause I've been

Broken down

Kicked around

One too many times

I finally found the strength

And you ain't gonna break my faith

She said I, I might go back to school

I know you take me for a fool

Despite what you say

Something occured to me today

'Cause I've been

Broken down

Kicked around

One too many times

Despite what you say

Something occured to me today

I am pretty

I am pretty

I am pretty
