Lyrics
IT'S MY TURN (Britton,Fastiggi 2005)
I've been a teacher and a lover
I've been so blessed, three times a mother
I've kissed the scratches on wounded knees
was a counselor and a refuree
Stuck inside this house, the dedicated spouse
It's my turn to get out, see what this world is all about
I'm gonna step right up and take a swing
reach out and grab that golden ring
so watch my tires burn, look out world, cause
It's my turn
I went to college, no debutante
I had my freedom, did what I want
studied painting, philosophy
was only credits shy of my degree
then I became a bride and put all that aside
IT"S MY TURN, to get out, see what this world is all about
I'm gonna step right up and take a swing
reach out and grab that golden ring
so watch my tires burn (look out world cause)
It's my turn
With all I've sacrified, I've lost some of myself
but now it's time for me to find, who I am
It's my turn to get out, see what this world is all about
I'm gonna step right and take a swing
reach out and grab that golden ring
so watch my tires burn (look out world, cause)
It's my turn
