The Old Woman In Me Songtext
The old woman in me thinks I look good in these jeans
She remembers what her body did carrying all those kids
She's narrowed down the truth, she don't even dye her roots
She's proud of the life she lived, says it made her the woman she is
The old woman in me, she don't wanna go back in time
Thinks her fifties might have been her prime, says, "Don't give up on that man of mine"
She's good at listening, says, "Kiss him every time a kid walks in"
Remember what your heart is for, and you won't have to ask for more
She remembers what her body did carrying all those kids
She's narrowed down the truth, she don't even dye her roots
She's proud of the life she lived, says it made her the woman she is
The old woman in me, she don't wanna go back in time
Thinks her fifties might have been her prime, says, "Don't give up on that man of mine"
She's good at listening, says, "Kiss him every time a kid walks in"
Remember what your heart is for, and you won't have to ask for more
She's a no-regretter
Yeah, a good forgiver
Yeah, and where she's worn around the edges, go on and let her be
She's peace in a house dress, I'm a work in progress
I hope someday I get to be the old woman in me
The old woman in me never made herself an enemy
Took a while and finally found her faith, says, "Everybody makes mistakes"
She'll smile and look you in the eye, say, "I love you" too many times
Yeah, but she don't apologize for all that love
She's a no-regretter
Yeah, a good forgiver
Yeah, and where she's worn around the edges, go on and let her be
She's peace in a house dress, and I'm a work in progress
I hope someday I get to be the old woman in me, yeah
The old woman in me sits on a front porch swing
Watching her grandkids play, dreaming 'bout yesterday
Yesterday
Yeah, a good forgiver
Yeah, and where she's worn around the edges, go on and let her be
She's peace in a house dress, I'm a work in progress
I hope someday I get to be the old woman in me
The old woman in me never made herself an enemy
Took a while and finally found her faith, says, "Everybody makes mistakes"
She'll smile and look you in the eye, say, "I love you" too many times
Yeah, but she don't apologize for all that love
She's a no-regretter
Yeah, a good forgiver
Yeah, and where she's worn around the edges, go on and let her be
She's peace in a house dress, and I'm a work in progress
I hope someday I get to be the old woman in me, yeah
The old woman in me sits on a front porch swing
Watching her grandkids play, dreaming 'bout yesterday
Yesterday
