Fighter

I took a walk this mornin' and I saw all their smilin' faces

Wonderin' how they got there—how'd you make it out alive?

I've been searchin' for the secret in so many places

Then, I looked at my mama, tickin' right along with time

She's a fighter (Mm)

Walkin' through the fire (Mm)

Though, now, she's a little tired (Mm)

Still a fighter

My mamaw comes from a small town with just enough to get by

Ain't afraid of a little work, not afraid to chase the light

When it's everything but easy, when she's dyin' instead of healin'

Searchin' for a reason to keep tickin' on with time

Oh, but she's a fighter (Mm)

Walkin' through the fire (Mm)

Though, now, she's a little tired (Mm)

Still a fighter (Mm)

Ooh

Ooh-oh

Ooh

Lookin' up at the ceilin', thinkin' about my life

Wonderin' how I got here and will I make it out alive

Every season, every heartache brought me right to this place

I'd be lyin' if I said I was fine

Oh, but I'm a fighter (Mm)

Yeah, I've walked through the fire (Mm)

Though, now, I'm a little tired (Mm)

Ooh-oh, still a fighter (Mm)

Still a fighter (Mm)
