Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, oh
Say you want to walk away
You ain't got nothing to say
Well I salute you (eh)
Go on out the door now you take care
No more tears to shed
What you expecting me to beg
Well I'm not I'm done
So when you leave
Just close the door behind you
'Cause
I'm feeling kind of taller than you (lately)
I'm feeling kind of stronger than you (lately)
I feel kind of better than you
And I know just what to do (yeah)
I feel like doing my hair
I'm feeling like calling some of my friends
I feel like going to a club
And partying
'Cause am I soldier girl in this world
I stand alone, I can be strong
I walk for miles and made it home
It's good to know without you I made it
Soldier girl in my world, took the fall now I stand tall
For the pain and all I made it through
And now I'm vow to say to you
I salute you
Eh, eh, eh
Eh, eh, eh
I salute you
Eh, eh, eh
Eh, eh, eh
You think you know everything
See you think that your shit don't stink, well it do
Yeah, and when it comes to me you don't have a clue
It took me all of these years
To realize that you don't belong here
I can do better
You say: I'll never do better
Yeah right whatever
'Cause
I'm feeling kinda taller than you (lately)
I'm feeling kinda stronger than you (lately)
I feel kinda better than you
And I know just what to do
I feel like doing my hair (my hair)
I'm feeling like calling some of my friends
(Some of my girlfriends)
I feel like going to a club
And partying
I'm a soldier girl in this world
I stand alone, I can be strong
I walk for miles and made it home
It's good to know without you I made it
Soldier girl in my world, took the fall now I stand tall
For the pain and all I made it through
And now I'm vow to say to you
I salute you
Eh, eh, eh
Eh, eh, eh
I salute you
Eh, eh, eh
Eh, eh, eh
So don't call it a comeback, no, I've been here for years
Through all of the drama and the pain and all of the tears
It's time to stop this roller coaster, say I want to get off
And start moving mountains
Swimming seas, and climbing over
I'm a soldier girl in this world
I stand alone, I can be strong
I walk for miles and made it home
It's good to know without you I made it
Soldier girl in my world, took the fall now I stand tall
For the pain and all I made it through
And now I'm vow to say to you
I salute you
Eh, eh, eh
Eh, eh, eh
I salute you
Eh, eh, eh
Eh, eh, eh
I salute you
Go on out the door, take care
Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, oh
