Strong Enough

I was raised up by my mamma alone Worked herself into the grave Trying to make us a home She never left South Carolina (no na) Our old man didn't stick around to see me grown He was long gone 'fore the coffee got cold Wouldn't even know where to find him Oh, wasn't strong enough Oh, he wasn't strong enough Alright, alright, alright, alright I left home with nothing but a dream I had All I own I could roll up in a paper bag Getting out of South Carolina, alright I've been told there's gold in this land All I know is what I hold in my own two hands If it's out there I'm gonna find it Oh, am I strong enough? Oh, am I strong enough? Everywhere you turn, there's another man slammin' doors Looking at you like he wouldn't even let you sweep his floors I was raised up by my mamma alone Worked herself into the grave Trying to make us a home She never left South Carolina I left home with nothing but a dream I had All I own I could roll up in a paper bag Getting out of South Carolina Oh, am I strong enough? Oh, tell me am I strong enough? Oh, am I strong enough? Oh, tell me am I strong enough? Am I strong enough? Am I strong enough? Am I strong enough? Am I strong enough? Oh, tell me, am I strong enough? Oh, gotta tell me, am I strong enough? (Oh, tell me, am I strong enough?)
