Lyrics
I've been a teacher and a lover
I've been so blessed, three times a mother
I kissed the scratches on wounded knees
was a counselor and refuree
I always put myself last but this girl's changing fast
IT'S MY TURN to get out
see what this world is all about
I wanna step right up and take a swing
Reach out and grab that golden ring
so watch my tires burn (look out world)
cause IT"S my TURN
I played the doctor, played the fool
and when you left me I just played it cool
gave up my weekends, free time I had
was a soccer Mom and Soccer Dad
now that the kids have grown and my time is my own
IT"S MY TURN to get out
see what this world is all about
I'm gonna step right up and take a swing
reach out and grab that golden ring
so watch my tires burn (look out world)
cause IT'S MY TURN
With all the roles I've played, I could be on broadway
but now it's time for me to find, who I am
IT"S MY TURN to get out
see what this world is all about
I waana step right up and take a swing
reach out and grab that golden ring
so watch my tires burn (look out world)
cause It's my turn
