Carrie Newcomer - I Fly lyrics

The women from the PTA whisper They sideways glace when I walk by They say look how far she's fallen And anit it just appallin' While they gossip grocery line But a woman's gotta do What a woman's gotta do Cause there's always rent to pay But when your kids need new shoes There's nothin' left to do But to put my pride away But :I, I fly over this town When the sky bleeds And the bars all close down But I still hope and I pray For something, someday I tried cleanin' houses And worked at the dollar mart But to see my baby boys go hungry It very nearly broke my heart I'm not cheap and I'm not easy I'm just paradin' my groceries And I can handle calls and stares For just a few more years 'Til no one wants to look at me But :I, I fly over this town When the sky bleeds And the bars all close down But I still hope and I pray For something, someday I like to stop in after workin For little kindness and a cup of joe And the waitress is always nice to me Even though I think she knows She always asks me how I doin If my kids caught that awful flu Once she put her hand on my hand And said "Honey, you just do whatcha gotta do."
