Faithful and Strong (That’s What I Want to Be)

[Instrumental intro]

[Verse 1]
Can't move, bucked out
Can't stand long on my own, now, filly!
Won't listen, no sir
If you're wanting to help me out

What I'm saying to you
Is the honest truth, sure as sugar
That you can't stop me from helping my friends
Do better than their best
Trot further and ascend!

[Pre-Chorus]
I'll always be there for my friends (Aw yeah)
With any help that I might lend!
Grab my rope, we'll put your
Problems in their pen
And we'll succeed

[Chorus]
Because your
Soul is tough!
With friends like you I cannot get enough
You know your
Heart is pure!
Faithful and strong, you know I know for sure

(Uncivil, uncouth, table's too good for me, that's what you said)

[Verse 2]
Bright lights, big city
Can't seem to fit myself in
To your polite company, now
That's okay, anyway
I'm bustin' flank back to the farm

What was I doin' thinkin' I was wrong?
I didn't learn nuthin'
I was right all along!

[Pre-Chorus]
I'll always be there for my friends (Aw yeah)
With any help that I might lend!
Grab my rope, we'll put your
Problems in their pen
And we'll succeed

[Chorus]
Because your
Soul is tough!
With friends like you I cannot get enough
You know your
Heart is pure!
Faithful and strong, you know I know for sure

You gotta
Trust yourself!
I know you can do it, I know you know it, too!
Just be free!
Faithful and strong that's what I want to be, now!

[Bridge]
Be a shining light
A champion of what is right
Bless those around you and you'll see
Exactly who you're s'posed to be!

[Chorus/Outro]
Soul is tough!
With friends like you I cannot get enough
You know your
Heart is pure!
Faithful and strong, I know you know for sure

You gotta
Trust yourself!
I know you can do it, I know you know it, too!
Just be free!
Faithful and strong that's what I want—
That's what I want—
That's what I want to be!

Yeah!
