carrie newcomer - i fly lyrics

Loading...

v: the women from the pta whisper
they sideways glace when i walk by
they say look how far she’s fallen,
and anit it just appallin’
while they gossip grocery line
v: but a woman’s gotta do
what a woman’s gotta do
cause there’s always rent to pay
but when your kids need new shoes,
there’s nothin’ left to do
but to put my pride away.

ch but :i, i fly over this town
when the sky bleeds
and the bars all close down
but i still hope and i pray
for something, someday

v: i tried cleanin’ houses
and worked at the dollar mart
but to see my baby boys go hungry
it very nearly broke my heart
v: i’m not cheap and i’m not easy
i’m just paradin’ my groceries
and i can handle calls and stares
for just a few more years
‘til no one wants to look at me

ch

v: i like to stop in after workin
for little kindness and a cup of joe
and the waitress is always nice to me
even though i think she knows.
v: she always asks me how i doin
if my kids caught that awful flu
once she put her hand on my hand
and said
“honey, you just do whatcha gotta do.”

ch
