I'm Alright

Lynn Anderson · Anthology, Vol. 2: The Chart Years [Renaissance] [1999]

(Bill Anderson)



I'm alright, I'm alright

I'm a little bit red in the eyes,

A little bit hurt in the heart

A little bit weary in the soul,

But I'm alright, I'm alright.



You mean I'm worth the dime

It took call me on the phone

Since when are you concerned

About the way things are at home.



We're doing just fine and without you thank

You, me and the dog and the cat

I don't care what you're doin'

And I careless where you are at.



'Cause I'm alright, I'm alright

I'm a little bit red in the eyes,

A little bit hurt in the heart

A little bit weary in the soul,

But I'm alright, I'm alright.

The rent's paid through December

And there's groceries on the shelf

You're not here to take care of me

So I'm taking care of myself.



No, I haven't got a job

But I have a friend who does

I know that don't sound much like me

But I'm not the girl I was.



But I'm alright, I'm alright

I'm a little bit red in the eyes,

A little bit hurt in the heart

A little bit weary in the soul,

But I'm alright, I'm alright...
