Delta Goodrem - Billionaire lyrics

I didn't drink till I was 27 That day I went to numb the pain inside me The emptiness was showing The hate around me growing I thought I had to bury my self-worth The Boulevard of Broken Dreams was building The whiskey kept on turning into wine Some people started asking Oh where was all this going? Then tried to pull the wool over my eyes I've always been a lady And that always saved me I had to see the other side My mama said, 'Go marry rich, girl' It'll take your problems all away But I lead life with my heart And the world's not always fair I'm gonna make myself that billionaire I've never been impressed with money or power Cause I thought I'd be the one to rule the world So many men would tell me It would be the gifts they gave me But that just don't make them my Mr. Right My name is Delta lady You can't try to change me I'll give you many reasons why My mama said, 'Go marry rich, girl' It'll take your problems all away But I lead life with my heart And the world's not always fair I'm gonna make myself that billionaire He said, 'Baby hold my hand' I'm not your baby, understand I'm gonna need a grown-ass man Who takes me for who I am My mama said, 'Go marry rich, girl' It'll take your problems all away But I lead life with my heart Though the world's not always fair I'm gonna make myself that billionaire Shake that wannabe You're only gonna end up lonely He's no good you see The real ones love unconditionally You got to shake that wannabe You're only gonna end up lonely
