 I Ain't Goin' Down
I Ain't Goin' Down
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
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 knowinIt 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
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
Her smile got me through the day
And every night I'd pray
I could give her enough
No on can tell me I'm wrong
I ain't goin' down...
Shania Twain
