Pocahontas Proud

Gretchen Wilson, John Rich, Vicky Mcgehee

I was raised in Pocahontas, Illinois
Everybody thought of me as one of the boys
'Cause I'd run with a crowd that was tough
At fifteen, I was tendin' Big O's Bar
I'd sing 'til 2 AM for a half-full tip jar
Spent my youth singing truth and payin' dues

I'm the biggest thing that ever came from my hometown
And I'll be damned if I'm gonna let 'em down
If it's the last thing I do before they lay me in the ground
You know I'm gonna make Pocahontas proud

I knocked on every door on music row
They looked down at me and said
"Girl, go back home, you ain't got (you ain't got)
What we need (what we need) in this town"
But they couldn't whup the fighting side of me
You know where I come from, we don't give up easily
Overnight
It took all my life to be found

I'm the biggest thing that ever came from my hometown
And I'll be damned if I'm gonna let 'em down
If it's the last thing I do before they lay me in the ground
You know I'm gonna make Pocahontas proud

Pocahontas proud (Pocahontas proud, Pocahontas proud)

At twenty-seven, I had baby Grace
And I was born again when I saw her sweet face
And I knew she was the greatest thing I'd ever do

I'm the biggest thing that ever came from my hometown
I'll be damned if I'm gonna let 'em down
If it's the last thing I do before they lay me in the ground

I'm the biggest thing that ever came from my hometown
And I'll be damned if I'm gonna let 'em down
If it's the last thing I do before they lay me in the ground
You know I'm gonna make Pocahontas proud

I was raised in Pocahontas, Illinois

Pocahontas proud
You know I'm gonna make Pocahontas proud

Pocahontas proud

Good night, Pocahontas, we love ya
