Wynonna - Everything Lyrics

Everything is not okay
But I’m okay with everything
I’ll get on just fine if you will
Let me do my thing

I’ll get on just fine
But there’s a cost that “just fine” brings
I’ll still speak my mind
Regardless of any strings

Just stand there and look real pretty
When the curtain goes up just sing

They threw me in
To see if I could swim
To see if I could swim
That’s how I learned to be me
Didn’t have a hand to reach out and grab
To pull me from the insanity
To pull me from the insanity

I was raised to stand up straight
And conquer and control
I was in the spotlight, baby
18 years old

I was in the spotlight to tap dance
For the gold
There was no stopping me from
The time we hit the road

Just wear what they tell you to
Just do what you’re told

They threw me in
To see if I could swim
To see if I could swim
That’s how I learned to be me
Didn’t have a hand to reach out and grab
To pull me from the insanity
To pull me from the insanity

Don’t forget to smile, Wy’
Don’t forget to smile
Don’t forget to smile, Wy’
Don’t forget to smile

I tried to be the good girl, tried to be
What they wanted me to be
I did my part to go and best to be what I was to be

I’ll get on just fine
But there’s a cost that “just fine” brings
I’ll still speak my mind regardless of any strings

Hey, just stand there and look real pretty
When the curtain goes up, just sing

I was just raised to stand up straight and conquer
Don’t forget to smile, Wy’
Don’t forget to smile
And control
I was in the spotlight
Don’t forget to smile, Wy’
At just 18 years old
Don’t forget to smile
