Billionaire lyrics

I didn't drink till I was 27

The 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?'

They tried to pull the wool over my eyes

I've always been the 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

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

And 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 not good, you see

The real ones love unconditionally

Shake that wannabe

You're only gonna end up lonely
