Walk Tall

Daddy gave me a baseball bat
Little league, NASCAR, all of that
Wouldn't let me fall far from the tree
But everything I ever wanted
Was in the back of mama's closet
And when they weren't looking, that's where I'd be

And no, they didn't understand
I was always gonna be my own kind of man

Well you gotta carry on
You gotta find your own way
You don't know the strength that you're made of
'Cause when they say you're wrong
You just stand up straight
And if the world is tryna make you feel small
You gotta walk tall
Mmm, walk tall

Never thought that I was smarter
Than anyone back in that old holler
But I knеw enough to know what's wrong or right
Folks say that I've been falling
Turned my back, ignorеd my calling
But I just went out looking for a better life

And no, I didn't understand
That I've become the woman that I am

You gotta carry on
You gotta find your own way
You don't know the strength that you're made of
'Cause when they say you're wrong
You just stand up straight
And if the world is tryna make you feel small
You gotta walk tall
Mmm, walk tall

You gotta walk tall
Oh, tall

You gotta carry on
You gotta find your own way
You don't know the strength that you're made of
When they say you're wrong
You just stand up straight
And if the world is tryna make you feel small

And this world will try to make you feel so small
So put your heels on
And walk tall
Mmm, walk tall
You gotta walk tall
Yeah, walk tall
