Well, I was lookin' for just a little bit more
Than just another pretty face
Someone who would be strong and true
If trouble ever came my way
Too many times, I've been left behind
When my back was up against the wall
But now I found someone who ain't gonna run
No matter how the dice may fall
She's tough enough to stand by me
When it all comes tumblin' down
She's tough enough to steady me
When I'm walkin' on shaky ground
When it comes to tenderness
Buddy, that's when she's at her best
When the goin' gets rough
She's tough
♪
Well, she's soft and sweet and she's good to me
Even when the times are bad
She picks me up with a gentle touch
Anytime I'm feelin' sad
Don't you know I'll never let her go
'Cause she makes it so plain to see
When love is real, it's strong as steel
And hers is all I'll ever need
She's tough enough to stand by me
When it all comes tumblin' down
She's tough enough to steady me
When I'm walkin' on shaky ground
When it comes to tenderness
Buddy, that's when she's at her best
When the goin' gets rough
She's tough
And I'm so glad that I'm her man
'Cause when the you know what starts to hit the fan
She's tough enough to stand by me
When it all comes tumblin' down
She's tough enough to steady me
When I'm walkin' on shaky ground
When it comes to tenderness
Buddy, that's when she's at her best
When the goin' gets rough
She's tough enough to stand by me
When it all comes tumblin' down
She's tough enough to steady me
When I'm walkin' on shaky ground
When it comes to tenderness
Buddy, that's when she's at her best
When the goin' gets rough
She's tough enough to stand by me
When it all comes tumblin' down...
