Horseshoe Heart

Words and Music by
Stewart Kohinga 

She’s got a rose tattoo  
On the side of her neck 
Lovers be warned  
You better watch your step 
She’s nobodies fool 
She ain’t messing around 
 

She knows what she wants  
She gets what she needs 
She’s not the one  
Begging on her knees 
Sharp as a razor 
Mind like a trap 
You better watch your back  

When she was  
An iddy biddy girl 
Her mama told her 
This is your world  
Don’t ever let nobody  
Push you around
  

Oh  
There she goes 
Baby’s got thick skin  
Baby’s got a horseshoe heart  

Oh  
Don’t you know  
Baby’s got thick skin  
Baby’s got a horseshoe heart  

Well she knows  
How to keep it cool 
Rise above 
Maybe bend the rules 
If life is a game  
Then she’s playing to win 


If she gets  
Knocked up 
Knocked down 
Knocked out 
And everything within her 
Screaming self-doubt 
She gets on her feet and 
She starts again  

When she was  
An iddy biddy girl 
Her mama told her 
This is your world  
Don’t ever let nobody  
Push you around 

Oh  
There she goes 
Baby’s got thick skin  
Baby’s got a horseshoe heart  

Oh  
Don’t you know  
Baby’s got thick skin  
Baby’s got a horseshoe heart  

And I love her  
With all my strength 
And I love her  
With all my mind 
And everything in between 


Oh  
There she goes 
Baby’s got thick skin  
Baby’s got a horseshoe heart  

Oh  
Don’t you know  
Baby’s got thick skin  
Baby’s got a horseshoe heart
