Chalee Tennison I Am Pretty Lyrics

I Am Pretty Lyrics

She woke up one Sunday morning

She said a prayer and asked for strength

She put her makeup on just perfect

For the first time in a long time

The mirror showed her grace



She heard him stirring in the kitchen

Last night's whiskey in the air

She could hear him carryin' on and cussin'

Then the woman in the mirror said

You gotta get outta here



'Cause you've been broken down and kicked around

One too many times

You finally found the strength

And he ain't gonna break my faith

She said I might go back to school

I know you take me for a fool

Despite what you say

Something occured to me today

Guess what, I am pretty



He took a drag off his cigarette

That patronizing look on his face

And he said 'Ah, Here we go again

Got that little suitcase in your hand

Let me guess, you're gonna find your dreams today'

And she said, you know, I just might but either way

I'm gonna get out, I'm gonna get out of this

God-forsaken place



'Cause you've been broken down and kicked around

One too many times

You finally found the strength

And he ain't gonna break my faith

She said I might go back to school

I know you take me for a fool

Despite what you say

Something occured to me today



'Cause I've been broken down and kicked around

One too many times

Despite what you say

Something occured to me today

I am pretty

I am pretty

I am pretty
