Peasant - Tough lyrics

Shes in the kitchen at the crack of dawn Bacons on, coffees strong Kids running wild, taking off their clothes If shes a nervous wreck, well it never showsTakes one to football and one to dance Hits the Y for aerobics cla** Drops by the bank, stops at the store Has on a smile when I walk through the doorThe last to go to bed, shell be the first one up And I thought I was toughShes strong, pushes on, can't slow her down She can take anything life dishes out There was a time back before she was mine When I thought I was toughWe sat there five years ago The doctors let us know, the test showed Shed have to fight to live, I broke down and cried She held me and said, "Its gonna be alright"She wore that wig to church Pink ribbon pin there on her shirt No room for fear, full of faith Hands held high singing, 'Amazing Grace'Never once complained refusing to give up And I thought I was toughShes strong, pushes on, can't slow her down She can take anything life dishes out There was a time back before she was mine When I thought I was toughShes a gentle word, the sweetest kiss A velvet touch against my skin Ive seen her cry, Ive seen her break But in my eyes shell always be strongThere was a time back before she was mine When I thought I was tough
