Song

I wanted to put the lyrics of a song by Shania Twain on here that I really love. I've always loved her as a singer and thought her songs were heart touching but this particular song really stuck out for me the first time I heard it. In a way it reminds me of my mom and always brings tears to my eyes. Now I have my own baby and am so glad I kept him even though there were doubts from many people who told me otherwise. Life will present challenges and what we do with them will determine who we become. Shania herself has an amazing story, she lost her parent's when she was really young and had to support her siblings on her own. Now look where she is today. I strongly suggest everyone listen to this song sometime.

Shania Twain

I Ain't Goin' Down lyrics

I'm gonna hold on--'cause what I believe in is so strong

No matter how long, no one Can tell me I'm wrong--I ain't goin' down. I had a baby at fifteen--Daddy never did forgive me I never heard from the guy again

I had to drop outta high school--Everybody treated me so cruel

But I didn't give in and giver her away

[Repeat Chorus]

Her smile got me through the day--And every night I'd pray

I could give her enough

At night I'd lie awake and cry--Hopin' we'd get by'Cause you can't live on love

I worked night and day to keep us goin'

Through the sweat and tears Without her knowin'

It was worth it just to watch her grow

Oh, oh, at least I was able to hold her

Whenever she needed my shoulder

I'm so glad I never let her go

[Repeat Chorus]

Her smile got me through the years--Dried away the tears

And filled me with hope

At night I'd lie awake and cry--Prayed we would get by

And for the courage to cope

Oh, oh, oh[Instrumental solo]

Her smile got me through the day--And every night

I'd pray I could give her enough

[Repeat Chorus (2x)]No on can tell me I'm wrong

I ain't goin' down
