In her bare feet, a white cotton dress
A ribbon holding back her curls
In a sweet gentle voice, she sings a lullaby
To two sleepy little girlsIn the nightlight glow as her babies drift off
She looks so fragile, looks so, soShe's strong, solid as a rock
Like a lighthouse standing alone
Yeah, she's strong, got the world on her shoulders
She keeps carrying onShe can take the heat, she can take the cold winter
She's got faith, there's no quit in her
She's strong
Yeah, so strongThere's a crayon picture says, 'We love you mom'
She keeps it in a frame on her desk
There's a friend of a friend who calls now and then
But she's not ready just yetShe might get lonely in the still of the night
But she'll hold out till she knows it's rightShe's strong, solid as a rock
Like a lighthouse standing alone
Yeah, she's strong, got the world on her shoulders
She keeps carrying onShe can take the heat, she can take the cold winter
She's got faith, there's no quit in her
She's strongAnd sometimes when nobody else is around
She gets down
And sometimes in a moment of weakness
A single tear falls and that's allShe's strong
She's strongShe can take the heat, she can take the cold winter
She's got faith, there's no quit in her
She's strong
Yeah, so strong
She's strong
Yeah, so strong
