I'm Just Like That Old Man In The Sea (Female/Country)

VERSE
He was out there all alone, staring down a big fish
When he knew it was on his line
He had nothing but one wish
He tied it to his boat to get it home
But the sharks got all but the bones
PRE-CHORUS
Now he never gave up
He just went back for more
Watch and see
I'm gonna be just like him
CHORUS
I'm just like that old man in the sea
Hell, yes, that's a hard thing to be
I'm just a girl who came from nowhere
Started from nothing; took what was there
And I'm not giving up without a fight
VERSE
I was out there feeling all alone
In the dark, then you came along
When I felt you were mine all mine
Believing commitment was strong
I asked you for together forever
But you rejected my love song
PRE-CHORUS
Seems you still have some thoughts
For someone else
But I'll make you see love should be me
Repeat CHORUS/SOLO/BRIDGE
Sometimes love tries so hard to slip away
But if it's real, it's worth fighting for
Repeat CHORUS/TAG
Yes, I started from nothing; took what was there
And I'm not giving up without a fight
