I'M A SURVIVOR
Reba McEntire
 
 
I was born 3 months too early 
The doctor gave me 30 days 
But I must have had my mama's will 
And God's amazing grace 
I guess I'll keep on livin 
Even if this love's to die for 
Cuz your bags are packed 
And I ain't cryin 
Your walkin out and I'm not tryin 
To change your mind 
Cuz I was born to be 

The baby girl without a chance 
A victim of circumstance 
The one who oughta give up 
But she's just too hard headed 
A single mom 
Who works 2 jobs 
Who loves her kids and never stops 
With gentle hands 
And the heart of a fighter 
I'm a survivor 

I don't believe in self pity 
It only brings you down 
May be the queen of broken hearts 
But I don't hide behind the crown 
When the deck is stacked against me 
I just play a different game 
My roots are planted in the past 
And though my life is changing fast 
Who I am is who I wanna be 

The baby girl without a chance 
A victim of circumstance 
The one who oughta give up 
But she's just too hard headed 
A single mom 
Who works 2 jobs 
Who loves her kids and never stops 
With gentle hands 
And the heart of a fighter 
I'm a survivor 

Oh a single mom 
Who works 2 jobs 
Who loves her kids and never stops 
With gentle hands 
And the heart of a fighter 
I'm a survivor 

But I must have had my mama's will
And God's amazing grace
(I'm a survivor)
