Spoken: 

You can say what you want about me

Wanna do what you want to me

But you can not stop me

I've been knocked down

It's a crazy town

Even got a punch in the face in LA

Ain't nothing in the world that you keep

me from doing what I wanna do

'Cause I'm too proud, I'm too strong

Life by the code that you gotta move on

Feel excited for yourself

and got nobody no way

so I...

(Held my head high)

Knew I (Knew I survive)

Well I made it (I made it)

I don't hate it (Don't hate it)

That's just the way it goes

Yeah

I done made it through

Stand on my own two

I paid my dues, yeah

Tried to hold me down

You can't stop me now

I paid my dues

Spoken:

So straight back on

You cannot stop me

I paid my dues

Now I'm still trusted every day

people try to mess with Anastacia

gotta nothing in common

cause I handle mine

and I thought I better let you know

I'm no punk I can't get down

I don't give a damn about abuse around

that was just fine 'til now

So I...

(Held my head high)

Knew I (Knew I survive)

Well I made it (I made it)

Oahh (Don't hate it)

That's just the way it goes

Yeah

I done made it through

Stand on my own two

I paid my dues

Yeah yeah

Tried to hold me down

you can't stop me now

I paid my dues, yeah

yeah yeah yeah

Took so long to get me here (here)

But I won't live in fear (fear)

You try to steal my shine (shine)

But first they wanna build you up (up)

Then they tear you down (down)

It's a struggle, you try to bubble

so I...

(Held my head high)

Knew I (Knew I survive)

Oahh (I made it)

(Don't hate it)

Said that's - just - the - wayyyyy

(I done made it through)

(Stand on my own two)

I said I paid my, I paid my dues

Yeahhhhh

(Tried to hold me down)

But you can't stop me now (you can't stop me now)

(I paid my dues) I paid my, paid my dues

(I done made it through) oahhh

(Stand on my own two) oh

(I paid my dues) I paid my, I paid my dues

yeahh (Tried to hold me down)

But you can't stop me now (you can't stop me now)

(I paid my dues) I paid my dues

Cowboys & Kisses

Cowboys and kisses.
Cowboys and kisses.
Gotta find myself everytime you go away.
Baggy blue jeans and a box of magazines,
is all I have of you. Waitin' on the day you walk back in my life.
Like a newborn child,
you made me smile,
then stole my heart away.
We may be outta touch,
but never out of time.
Come back to me boy...

Cowboys and kisses
always seem to bring me down.
You're like a weight in my pocket
everytime you come around.
Damn those cowboys and kisses.
Gotta find myself everytime you go away.

Holdin on to you like a pair of old shoes
that you never throw away.
Every road still leads me back to you.
Your little white lies and butterflies
made me shed a tear.
Still I'm prayin on the day that you'll be mine.
Why do all these...

Chorus x 2

Why do I keep on holding you,
when all you do is hurt me?
All my friends say I should let you go.
So afraid that I might see.
I can't keep on living life like this,
up and down in and out. I wonder,
is this world just a cowboy and a kiss?
Or should I choose another?

One day in your life

I know

that's just it goes

and you ain't right

for sure you turned your back on love

for the last time

it won't take much longer now

time makes me stronger, way 

there's nothing more to say

one day in your life

said love would remind you

how could you leave it all behind

one day in your life

it's gonna find you

with the tears that left me cry

and baby I'm stronger then before

you gotta play it on the line

maybe one day in your life

my love

did you think I'd break down

and cry

this thing we had

it mean the world to me

guess I ...

it won't take much longer now

see time makes me stronger way

and I know you'll be coming round some day

one day in your life

said love would remind you

how could you leave it all behind

Yeah

one day in your life

it's gonna find you

with the tears that left me cry

and baby I'm stronger then before

you gotta play it on the line

maybe one day in your life

you called me in the midnight hour

with your ... lights

so many sleepless nights, I wonder

is it time to say goodbye?

oooh yeah

one day in your life

said love would remind you

baby

how could you leave it all behind

could you leave it all behind

yeah

one day in your life

it's gonna find you

with the tears that left me cry

and baby I'm stronger then before

you gotta play it on the line

maybe one day in your life

ooooooooone day

one day in your life

said love would remind you

yeah yeah yeah

how could you leave it all behind

oh oh oh yeah

one day in your life

it's gonna find you

with the tears that left me cry

and baby I'm stronger then before

you gotta play it on the line
