Lori McKenna - The Old Woman In Me Lyrics



Lori McKenna - The Old Woman In Me Lyrics
Official




The old woman in me thinks I look good in these jeans
She remembers what her body did carrying all those kids
She's narrowed down the truth, she don't even dye her roots
She's proud of the life she lived, says it made her the woman she is

The old woman in me, she don't wanna go back in time
Thinks her fifties might have been her prime, says, "Don't give up on that man of mine"
She's good at listening, says, "Kiss him every time a kid walks in"
Remember what your heart is for and you won't have to ask for more

She's a no-regretter
Yeah, a good forgiver
Yeah, well, she's worn around the edges
Go on and let her be
She's peace in a house dress
I'm a work in progress
I hope someday I get to be the old woman in me

The old woman in me never made herself an enemy
Took a while and finally found her faith, says, "Everybody makes mistakes"
She'll smile and look you in the eye, say I love you too many times
Yeah, but she don't apologize for all that love

She's a no-regretter
Yeah, a good forgiver
Yeah, well, she's worn around the edges
Go on and let her be
She's peace in a house dress
And I'm a work in progress
I hope someday I get to be the old woman in me, yeah

The old woman in me sits on a front porch swing
Watching her grandkids play, dreaming 'bout yesterday, yesterday
