[00:00.00]Artist: Gretchen Wilson lyrics
[00:04.95]Album: Here For The Party
[00:07.93]Year: 2004
[00:10.46]Title: Pocahontas Proud
[00:14.70]
[00:17.08]I was raised in Pocahontas Illinois
[00:22.08]Everybody thought of me as one of the boys
[00:27.00]Cause I'd run with the crowd that was tough
[00:33.97]At 15 I was tending big OS bar
[00:38.58]And I'd sing til 2 AM for a half full tip jar
[00:43.62]Spent my youth singing truth paying dues
[00:50.61]
[00:50.85]I'm the biggest thing that ever came from my hometown
[00:55.73]And I'll be damned if I'm gonna let them down
[01:00.63]If it's the last thing I do before they lay me in the ground
[01:07.47]You know I'm gonna make Pocahontas proud
[01:13.17]
[01:14.94]I knocked on every door on music row
[01:19.63]But they looked down at me and said girl go back home
[01:24.38]You ain't got what we need in this town
[01:31.52]But they couldn't whup the fighting side of me
[01:36.21]You know where I come from we don't give up easily
[01:41.44]Overnight took all my life to be found
[01:48.48]
[01:48.94]I'm the biggest thing that ever came from my hometown
[01:53.20]And I'll be damned if I'm gonna let them down
[01:58.11]If it's the last thing I do before they lay me in the ground
[02:06.06]You know I'm gonna make Pocahontas proud
[02:26.24]
[02:27.79]At 27 I had baby grace
[02:34.99]And I was born again when I saw her sweet face
[02:41.55]And I knew she was the greatest thing I'd ever do
[02:47.70]
[02:48.04]I'm the biggest thing that ever came from my hometown
[02:53.45]And I'll be damned if I'm gonna let them down
[02:58.01]If it's the last thing I do before they lay me in the ground
[03:05.53]I'm the biggest thing that ever came from my hometown
[03:10.03]And I'll be damned if I'm gonna let them down
[03:14.85]If it's the last thing I do before they lay me in the ground
[03:21.92]You know I'm gonna make Pocahontas proud
[03:33.58]I was raised in Pocahontas Illinois
[03:45.89]
