Lyrics
All the way from St. Tammany
Beatin' your drums for captivity
but you would not take the good from me
you can watch me watch me break free
you can watch me watch me break free
Mama died when I was just a little girl
Daddy's still a prisoner of time
Uncle's going in again, yeah when sister went down for ten
I became a mother of two
Steady, steady and true
But I am more than what you see
what you've been taught to believe
Yes I am just a woman breaking free
Oh you just watch me
you can watch me you can watch me break free
you can watch me you can watch me break free
I'm gonna hold my babies tight tonight
Give 'em all the love that i know is right
even though their mama's gone
I'll hold them tight just like a drum
steady, strong steady and strong
But I am more than what you see
what you've been taught to believe
Yes I am just a woman breaking free
Oh you just watch me
you can watch me you can watch me break free
you can watch me you can watch me break free
you can watch me you can watch me break free
you can watch me you can watch me break free
