Tough

I wanted lace, I wanted pearls, to be a princess like
 The other girls.
 But life came hard, to my front door.
 And I grew up trying
 To even out the score.
 Tough, I ain't never been nothing but tough, all my edges have
 Always been rough.
 But Jesus loves me anyway.
 Oh backbone, there ain't nothing wrong with a woman that
 Got a little backbone.
 You just wait 'til you taste her kind of love.
 You want a shy little thing, a pretty little high heel thing,
 Gonna cry if I don't polish up.
 Tough.

 The way I see it, the hand of fate, did me a favor, with
 The cards he dealt my way.
 Found out real fast, life is a game.
 You're out real quick if you don't know how to play, tough.
 I ain't never been nothing but tough,
 all my edges have always been rough.
 But Jesus loves me anyway.
 Oh backbone, there ain't nothing wrong with a woman that
 Got a little backbone.

 You want a shy little thing, a pretty little high heel thing,
 Gonna cry if I don't polish up.
 Are you serious? You ain't fooled me much.
 You justa hanging round
 So you can try your luck.
 Well tough, I ain't never been nothing but tough,
