Adlibs:
Eh, eh oh

You say you wanna walk away
You ain't got nothing to say
I salute you, yeah
Go on out the door now you take care
No more tears to shed
What, you expecting me to beg
Well I'm not, I'm done
So when you leave just close the door behind you

'Cause I'm feeling kinda taller than you (lately)
I'm feeling kinda stronger than you (oh lately)
I'm feeling kinda better than you
And I know just what to do
I feel like doing my hair (my hair)
I feel like calling some of my friends (some of my girlfriends)
I feel like going to a club and partying

Chorus:
'Cause I'm a soldier girl in this world
I stand alone, I can be strong
I've walked the miles, I made it home
It's good to know without you I made it
Soldier girl in my world
I took the fall, now I stand tall
For the pain and all, I made it through
And now all I got to say to you
Salute (eh, eh)
Salute (eh, eh)

You think you know everything
And you think that your sh-- don't stink
Well it do, hey
And when it comes to me you don't have a clue
Took me all of these years
To realize that you don't belong here
I can do better
You say I'll never do better
Yeah right, whatever

'Cause I'm feeling kinda taller than you (lately)
I'm feeling kinda stronger than you (oh baby, lately)
I'm feeling kinda better than you
And I know just what to do
I feel like doing my hair (my hair)
I feel like calling some of my friends (my girlfriends)
I feel like going to a club, do some partying

Chorus

(Oh) So don't call it a comeback, no
(Oh) I've been here for years
(Oh) Through all the drama and the pain
(Oh) And all of the tears
(Oh) Time to stop this rollercoaster
(Oh) See I want to get off
(Oh) And start moving mountains, swimming seas
(Oh) And climbing over walls

Chorus

I salute you (eh)
I salute you (eh)
Salute
Salute (eh)
Salute (eh)
I salute you (eh)
Go on take care (eh, eh)
Go on out the door now, take care (eh)
