Well I was looking for a little bit more than just another pretty face
Someone who would be strong and true if trouble should come my way
Too many times I 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
And when the goin' gets rough she's tough
[ guitar ]
She's soft and sweet and she's good to me even when times are bad
She picks me up with a gentle touch anytime I'm feelin' sad
Well don't you know I'll never let her go cause she makes it so plain to see
When love is real it's as stong as steel and hers is all I'll ever need
She's tough enough to stand by me

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
She's tough enough to stand by me
