Stubborn Girls
Mama was a lover but she knew how to fight
She was the only pretty girl who could keep papa right
They fell in love and they had us kids
Life was just peachy 'til we hit the skids
Papa got sick when I was sixteen
We went from having it all to losing everything
Mama took two jobs just to get us through school
One day I asked her how'd you make it through
She said it's the stubborn girls
That change the world
When trouble starts
They follow their hearts
While everybody else is just falling apart
It's the stubborn girls
That change the world
They never stop
Like it or not
When thunder rolls they're the rock
It's the stubborn girls
Oh yeah
Every afternoon when mama came home
I turned her mop into a microphone
She'd ask for Reba and i'd watch her smile
As I sang fancy on the kitchen tiles
We never had much but we had enough
And when Nashville called she helped load up my truck
When I kissed her goodbye she said don't ever forget
Your voice will get you rich but when you want some respect
Be a stubborn girl
And you'll change the world
When trouble starts
Girl follow your heart
While everybody else is just falling apart
It's the stubborn girls
That change the world
They never stop
Like it or not
When thunder rolls they're the rock
It's the stubborn girls
It's the stubborn girls
And if i'm blessed one day with a little girl of my own
You can bet your bottom dollar
She is gonna know
It's the stubborn girls
That change the world
When trouble starts
They follow their hearts
While everybody else is just falling apart
It's the stubborn girls
That change the world
They never stop
Like it or not
When thunder rolls they're the rock
It's the stubborn girls
It's the stubborn girls
It's the stubborn girls
She was the only pretty girl who could keep papa right
They fell in love and they had us kids
Life was just peachy 'til we hit the skids
Papa got sick when I was sixteen
We went from having it all to losing everything
Mama took two jobs just to get us through school
One day I asked her how'd you make it through
She said it's the stubborn girls
That change the world
When trouble starts
They follow their hearts
While everybody else is just falling apart
It's the stubborn girls
That change the world
They never stop
Like it or not
When thunder rolls they're the rock
It's the stubborn girls
Oh yeah
Every afternoon when mama came home
I turned her mop into a microphone
She'd ask for Reba and i'd watch her smile
As I sang fancy on the kitchen tiles
We never had much but we had enough
And when Nashville called she helped load up my truck
When I kissed her goodbye she said don't ever forget
Your voice will get you rich but when you want some respect
Be a stubborn girl
And you'll change the world
When trouble starts
Girl follow your heart
While everybody else is just falling apart
It's the stubborn girls
That change the world
They never stop
Like it or not
When thunder rolls they're the rock
It's the stubborn girls
It's the stubborn girls
And if i'm blessed one day with a little girl of my own
You can bet your bottom dollar
She is gonna know
It's the stubborn girls
That change the world
When trouble starts
They follow their hearts
While everybody else is just falling apart
It's the stubborn girls
That change the world
They never stop
Like it or not
When thunder rolls they're the rock
It's the stubborn girls
It's the stubborn girls
It's the stubborn girls
