Billionaire

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I didn't drink 'til I was twenty-seven The 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 [Verse 2] The Boulevard of Broken Dreams was building The whiskey kept on turning into wine Some people started asking: "Oh, where was all this going?' They tried to pull the wool over my eyes [Pre-Chorus 1] I've always been the lady, yeah And that always saved me I had to see the other sidе [Chorus] My mama said, "Go marry rich, girl It'll take your problems all away" But I lead lifе with my heart And the world's not always fair I'm gonna make myself that billionaire [Verse 3] 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 [Pre-Chorus 2] My name is Delta Lady You can't try to change me I'll give you many reasons why [Chorus] But 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 [Bridge] 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 [Chorus] 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 [Outro] Shake that wannabe You're only gonna end up lonely 'Cause he's not good, you see The real ones love unconditionally Gotta shake that wannabe You're only gonna end up lonely ('Cause he's not good, you see The real ones love unconditionally)
