Kelsey Waldon - I've Endured Lyrics

Born in the mountains,
Many years ago
Climbed these hills and valleys
Through the rain and snow.
Seen the lightning flashing,
I've heard thunder roll.
I've endured,
I've endured.
How long can one endure?
Barefoot in the summer,
On into the fall
Too many mouths to feed,
They couldn't clothe us all.
Went to church on Sunday,
To learn the golden rule.
I've endured,
I've endured.
How long can one endure?
I've worked for the rich,
I've lived with the poor.
I've seen many a heartache,
And I'll see many more.
I've lived, loved and sorrowed,
Been through success's door.
I've endured,
I've endured.
How long can one endure?
I've endured,
I've endured.
How long can one endure?
How long can one endure?"
