Asetha Power: Music
I'll Be All Right Hosanna
(Asetha Power)
I. I never told a soul how he spoke to me
or how he behaved when he had a few drinks
I was too ashamed that I put up with him
What would mama say if she knew all this
Chorus
I’ll be all right Hosanna
I know you think I'm running but aren’t we all
I’ll be all right Hosanna
Mama always said don’t take a coward's arm
I’ll be all right Hosanna
II. Times have changed, we don't need our men
And I won’t have my babies by a child himself
I worked hard to pay my way through school
I got a damn good job and I want a family too
III. Why I stayed, I guess I'll never know
A house ain't worth nothin' when nobody's home
I'd rather sleep on the street tonight
I'd freeze to death Lord to set life right
