Testo Born tough Nikki Lane

Born tough

Well, my daddy always told me I was livin' in a man's world
But that don't mean there ain't room for a big-hearted girl
So my mama took me pickin', said that we?could?buy?a set of?tools
So that I?could build my own life and play by my own rules
I was set in my ways, I had made up my mind
I was filin' for divorce by the age of twenty-nine
Couldn't see the light at the end of the road
Had to stop and think of how the story goes

I was born tough, torn up
Hardened by time
I've been let down, all around
Discouraged by life
And it gets hard not to cry
So I have a thousand times
Well, I was born tough

Well, I can say for certain I was hellbent on leavin' town
So I hitched mys?lf a trailer, packed the things I couldn't liv? without
I was bound and determined to never go back there
Didn't matter to me then, could have been anywhere
Things are different now, it just don't feel the same
When they call me by my old name

I was born tough, torn up
Hardened by time
I've been let down, all around
Discouraged by life
And it gets hard not to cry
So I have a thousand times
And I can hold on for so long
And never let go
I can ride out, shoot the lights out
And close out the show
But when I say I've had enough
Darlin', don't you call my bluff
'Cause I was born tough
I was born tough

Well, I know it ain't easy
No one ever said it should be
But that don't mean it ain't worth believin'
In someone or something

I was born tough, torn up
And hardened by time
I've been let down, all around
Discouraged by life
And it gets hard not to cry
So I have a thousand times
And I can hold on for so long
Never let go
I can ride out, shoot the lights out
And close out the show
But when I say I've had enough (Yeah)
Darlin', don't you call my bluff
Yeah, when I say I've had enough
Darlin', don't you call my bluff
'Cause I was born tough
I was born tough
I was born tough
I was born tough
And I've had enough
