Salute Lyrics

Whitney Houston Salute

Songwriters: Kelly, Robert;

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, lately
I'm feeling kinda better than you
And I know just what to do

I feel like doing my hair
I'm feeling like calling some of my friends
I feel like going to a club and partying

'Cause I'm a soldier girl in this world
I stand alone, I can be strong
I walk for 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 I'm about to say to you
Salute, salute

You think you know everything
And you think that your shit don't stink, well it do
Yeah, and when it comes to me
You don't have a clue

It 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, baby lately
I'm feeling kinda better than you
And I know just what to do

I feel like doing my hair
I'm feeling like calling some of my friends
I feel like going to a club, do some partying

'Cause I'm a soldier girl in this world
I stand alone, I can be strong
I walk for miles and 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 I'm about to say to you
Salute, salute

So don't call it a comeback, no
I've been here for years
Through all of the drama
And the pain and all of the tears

It's time to stop this roller coaster
Say I wanna get off
And start moving mountains, swimming seas
And climbing over walls

'Cause I'm a soldier girl in this world
I stand alone, I can be strong
I walk for 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 I'm about to say to you
I salute you, I salute you

Salute, salute, salute
I salute you, go on take care
Go on out the door and take care
