๐ Lyrics
Jasmine was a sunny girl living in Abilene
A pretty thing
But she did not get pregnant in high school
Become a young boy's wife and struggle to survive
Like her mama
Got her education while working as a waitress at night
She was dog tired
But she did not feel sorry for herself and blame her mom and dad
For the things she never had
Sometimes without warning
It felt like a weight was placed upon her chest
She could not rest
There was nothing to relieve it, only to believe it would pass
Ooh, she came from rough beginnings
Ooh, she came from rough beginnings
Got in with a big firm and quickly rose up to the top
No stopping her
And she did not cut throats to make it, backstab others
Or lay herself down
Keep it moving in the right direction
Keep it moving in the right direction
Keep it moving in the right direction
Keep it moving in the right direction
Keep it moving in the right direction
Keep it moving in the right direction
Fell in love and had a family
Two kids and a dog and a good man by her side
And she's waking up every morning giving thanks and praise
The dawn has arrived
Ooh, she came from rough beginnings
Ooh, she came from rough beginnings
A pretty thing
But she did not get pregnant in high school
Become a young boy's wife and struggle to survive
Like her mama
Got her education while working as a waitress at night
She was dog tired
But she did not feel sorry for herself and blame her mom and dad
For the things she never had
Sometimes without warning
It felt like a weight was placed upon her chest
She could not rest
There was nothing to relieve it, only to believe it would pass
Ooh, she came from rough beginnings
Ooh, she came from rough beginnings
Got in with a big firm and quickly rose up to the top
No stopping her
And she did not cut throats to make it, backstab others
Or lay herself down
Keep it moving in the right direction
Keep it moving in the right direction
Keep it moving in the right direction
Keep it moving in the right direction
Keep it moving in the right direction
Keep it moving in the right direction
Fell in love and had a family
Two kids and a dog and a good man by her side
And she's waking up every morning giving thanks and praise
The dawn has arrived
Ooh, she came from rough beginnings
Ooh, she came from rough beginnings
