Tough times were around me but better times ahead
Never will forget from whence I came
I used to sing for mama's company
I see you and me in this crazy life of mine
I'd take it from the top but we don't have that much time
As a little girl, I had a stubborn mind
Thank God, the pieces seem to fit
Two times a mother and as many times wed
Warm to the touch, intellectually cold
Sometimes young, yet so old
I have some regrets but I made myself a name
I love the how and why of it
I guess that was the start of the woman I came to be
Mine
So I'm breakin' off a piece of this crazy life of mine
Pieces seem to fit in this crazy life of mine
If your heart can handle these words I've said
Bonnie and me were wild most of the time
