He said he’d always wanted a blonde and blue-eyed girl
When he left she was a young soul
And it shook the foundation of your world
But your hands were made for working
And that’s just what you did
Head down raised such a strong woman from a scared little kid
You couldn’t be more alright so strong over all this time
A friend and a shoulder when I want to hold you
And you’re still a dreamer
You’re such a rock for us still sold out for your cause
Over all this time you make it look so light
The weight that you hold our heavy load
Some things are best left forgotten
And some things you’ve got to hold
He’ll be so proud of you momma
When you meet down that eternal road
