McEntire, Reba - I'm A Survivor Lyrics






I was born 3 months too early
The doctor gave me 30 days
But I must of had my momma's will
And God's amazing grace
I guess I'll keep on livin'
Even if this love to die for
Cause your bags are packed and I ain't crying
You walking out and I'm not trying to change your mind
Cause I was born to be...

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

Oh...A single mom who works two jobs
Who loves her kids and never stop
With gentle hands and a heart of a fighter
I'm a survivor....

But I must of had my momma's will and God's
amazing grace

I'm a survivor...(Say once then hum)

    I was born with what the doctors called bronical pneumonia and almost died in the hospital,turned blue,couldnt breathe and the nurse cut my ankle open to give me an IV and said I was to fat for the IV so stitched me up and never even used it for an IV,so I was cut open in my ankle for nothing,(I still have the scar) and my mother shoved the nurse up against the wall for it and demanded to see me after they told her she wasn't allowed. She was allowed to see me after after that.😁 My mother doesn't let ANYONE mess with her kids and her grandkids.
