me & my music ......

okay so i know i've been m.i.a. this week(a LOT freakin' going on) - but i heard this song today & i wanted to share it with all my lovely ladies...had to jump on here & post the lyrics

Martina McBride: 'This one's for the girls'

This one's for all you girls about thirteen..
High school can be so rough, can be so mean.
Hold on to your innocence
Stand your ground when everyone else is giving in..
This one's for the girls

This is for all you girls about twenty-five
In a little apartment, just trying to get by
Living on dreams and spaghetti-o's
Wondering where & when your life is gonna go

This one's for the girls
Who've ever had a broken heart
Who've wished upon a shooting star...
You're beautiful the way you are.
This one's for the girls
Who love without holding back
Who dream with everything they have
All around the world
This one's for the girls

This is for all you girls about forty-two
Tossing pennies into the Fountain of Youth
Every laugh, and laugh line on your face
Made you who you are today...

This one's for the girls
Who've ever had a broken heart
Who've wished upon a shooting star
You're beautiful the way you are.
This one's for the girls
Who love without holding back
Who dream with everything they have
All around the world
This one's for the girls

Yeah, we're all the same inside
From 1 to 99

This one's for the girls
Who've ever had a broken heart
Who've wished upon a shooting star
You're beautiful the way you are
This one's for the girls
Who love without holding back
Who dream with everything they have
All around the world
This one's for the girls
Yeah, this one's for the girls

Thanks for posting. I downloaded this song a few months ago and I LOVE it. but I think I forgot about it. i need to add to my playlist again.

yea...it's such a feel good girl song

I love Martina McBride. She just seems like a normal person too-good hearted person and all of her songs are always about living life well, family, friends, God. All themes I like. She's one of the few female country vocalists I like-I find most of them too shrill. I love her though and Carrie Underwood and of course Faith Hill.

One of my FAVORITE songs by her is this one...

Blessed


I get kissed by the sun
Each morning
Put my feet on a hardwood floor
I get to hear my children laughing
Down the hall through the
Bedroom door
Sometimes I sit on my
Front porch swing
Just soaking up the day
I think to myself, I think to myself
This world is a beautiful place

I have been blessed
And I feel like I’ve found my way
I thank God for all I’ve been given

At the end of every day
I have been blessed
With so much more than I deserve
To be here with the ones
That love me
To love them so much it hurts
I have been blessed

Across a crowded room,
I know you know what I’m thinking
By the way I look at you
And when we’re lying in the quiet and
No words have to be said
I think to myself, I think to myself
This love is a beautiful gift

Repeat chorus

When I’m singing my kids to sleep
When I feel you holding me
I know

I love this song! It's so sweet! Thanks!

Thank you. This is lovely.

LOOVE blessed! had it as my myspace song for a while.. 'Do it anyway' is another good one! i just love all her songs lol.

LOL ya I do too. I am a weirdo in that I will not support actors/ singers who I feel are just waaay to far off the deep end. I don't like to hear their personal live stories, just their 'art' whether it be movies or songs. I don't like scandals so Im glad that Martina, Faith Hill and Carrie who are my favorite female singers have boring lives lol.
