Mama, I'm Alright Lyrics


The sun just got through going down
On a sleepy little Texas town
Population plus one minus oneA new grandma rocks my sister's kid
Just like twenty years ago she did
The same thing in that same chair
She said, "This one's born to run"Every day at noon like a chapel bell
Find her Jesus keep her well
Help her do more right than wrong
At the end of the dayI got 5 good years and a tank of gas
Fifty watts and Johnny Cash
A guitar and a broken heart
Just full of things to sayYou taught me how to stand those tests and trials
But you can't see a desert sunrise in the BibleShe loves me more than anything
And she wants the world for me
Her west dropped of in El Paso
And her north in AbileneMama, I'm okay out here
I've seen how hard the world can be
My step is sure and I know my name

I'm strong just like you prayed I'd be
I'm strong just like you prayed I'd beIf I'd have done what you and daddy done
Would have never lost and never won
Or gotten myself kicked
When I was downI would not know how to travel well
A hundred bucks and cheap motels
I would not know how to fight
For my own heart next time aroundDon't you cry another night about me
In this city I've got angels all around meShe loves me more than anything
And she wants the world for me
Her west dropped of in El Paso
And her north in AbileneHey mama, I'm okay out here
I've seen how hard the world can be
My step is sure and I know my name
I'm strong just like you prayed Id be
I'm strong just like you prayed I'd beI felt it every time you prayed for me
I'm strong just like you prayed I'd be

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Biography

Miranda Lambert was born on November 10, 1983 in Lindale, Texas, about 80 miles east of Dallas. Both of her parents are private investigators, but father Rick is also a country guitarist and songwriter. Lambert became seriously interested in country music after attending a Garth Brooks concert as a young girl, and soon began singing in talent contests under the tutelage of her father.

At 16, Miranda began appearing on the Johnny High Country Music Review in Arlington, Texas, the same show that helped launch the career of LeAnn Rimes. Miranda quickly landed a recording session in Nashville, but left the studio in tears after she became frustrated with the "pop" sound of music that was not her own. Upon returning to Texas, Miranda began writing songs and taking guitar lessons from her father.

When Miranda's aptitude for music became apparent, her parents encouraged her to aggressively pursue singing and acting opportunities. While still a high school student, Miranda made her professional singing debut and fronted the house band at the Reo Palm Isle Ballroom in Longview, Texas, a long-running venue that has showcased Elvis Presley and Willie Nelson.

Foregoing college, Miranda performed throughout Texas in 2001 and 2002. She finished first in the Texas auditions for Nashville Star and eventually placed third on the national competition.
