I didn′t drink 'til I was 27
That day I went to numb the pain inside me
The emptiness was showingThe hate around me growing
I thought I had to bury my self-worth
The boulevard of broken dreams was building
The whiskey kept on turning into wine
Some people started asking
Oh, where was all this going?
Then tried to pull the wool over my eyes
I′ve always been a lady, yeah
And that always saved me
I had to see the other side
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
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
My name is Delta lady
You can′t try to change me
I'll give you many reasons why 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
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
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
Shake that wannabe
You′re only gonna end up lonely
'Cause he′s no good, you see
The real ones love unconditionally
You got to shake that wannabe
You're only gonna end up lonely
