Crystal Bowersox

I Am

Halfway to crazy, not far from sane*

Fuckin' sick and tired of all your games

All I ever wanted was you to take care of me

Honor thy mother and father too

But I know there ain't no way in hell that God mentioned you

All I ever wanted was you to care for me

Now I'm stuck in this hotel room, your grandson and me

Tomorrow we're gonna find out our destiny

All I ever wanted was you to be there for me

All I ever needed was you to be here for me

This time is the last time you're gonna see us around

This was your last chance to prove you wouldn't let me down

So go on, get going and get away from here

All alone is how you're gonna spend the rest of your years

No farmer's daughter anymore, mommy dear.

Remember back in high school, my brothers and me

Willie put his head through the door to find clarity

You'd come home with bourbon breath, Jack in the air

And when you broke my bones I told the school I fell down the stairs

All I ever wanted was for you to be there for me

All I ever needed was for you to be here for me

This time is the last time you're gonna see us around

This was your last chance to prove you wouldn't let me down

So go on home, get going and get away from here

All alone is how you're gonna spend the rest of your years

No farmer's daughter anymore

I ain't no farmer's daughter anymore

No farmer's daughter anymore, mommy dear
