I didn't drink till I was 27
That day I went to numb the pain inside me
The emptiness was showing
The hate around me growing
I thought I had to bury my self-worth.
The boulevard of broken dreams was building
The whiskey kept on turning into wine
Some people started asking
Oh where was all this going?
Then tried to pull the wool over my eyes.
I've always been a lady
And that always saved me
I had to see the other side.
My mama said, 'go marry rich, girl'
It'll take your problems all away
But I lead life with my heart
And the world's not always fair
I'm gonna make myself that billionaire.
I've never been impressed with money or power
Cause I thought I'd be the one to rule the world
So many men would tell me
It would be the gifts they gave me
But that just don't make them my mr. right.
My name is delta lady
You can't try to change me
I'll give you many reasons why.
My mama said, 'go marry rich, girl'
It'll take your problems all away
But I lead life with my heart
And the world's not always fair
I'm gonna make myself that billionaire.
He said, 'baby hold my hand'
I'm not your baby, understand
I'm gonna need a grown-ass man
Who takes me for who I am.
My mama said, 'go marry rich, girl'
It'll take your problems all away
But I lead life with my heart
Though the world's not always fair
I'm gonna make myself that billionaire.
Shake that wannabe
You're only gonna end up lonely
He's no good you see
The real ones love unconditionally
You got to shake that wannabe
You're only gonna end up lonely.
