I've got money in my pocket

I like the color of my hair

I've got a friend who loves me

I've got a house, I've got a car

I've got a good mother
C G
And her voice is what keeps me here

Feet on ground, Heart in hand

Facing forward just be yourself

And his strength is what makes me cry

Feet on ground, Heart in hand

Facing forward just be yourself
