Lyrics
by Craig Brenner
Down and out and feeling low;
Nowhere to turn, no place to go.
Didn't know what to do,
'Cause all my life I depended on you, now I'm
Standin' on My Own Two Feet Again,
Ready to face a brand new day.
Standin' on my feet, learned to make ends meet;
I'm on my way.
When you left you took the car,
Drove it straight to the bar.
I told the kids you had to go.
I'm though with cryin' and now I know that I'm
Standin' on My Own Two Feet Again,
Ready to face a brand new day.
Standin' on my feet, learned to make ends meet;
I'm on my way.
And I'm so glad to be free of self doubt,
To let my inner strength come tumblin' out.
Now I know your leavin' was a blessing in disguise;
I used to cry all night, now I sing at sunrise!
Standin' on My Own Two Feet Again,
It's a brand new day.
Standin' on my feet, I can make ends meet;
I've turned the page.
Standin' on my feet, I can make ends meet.
I'm on my way!
