Aaron Tippin

Aaron Dupree Tippin (born July 3, 1958 in Pensacola, Florida) is an American country music artist and record producer. Initially a songwriter for Acuff-Rose Music, he gained a recording contract with RCA Records in 1990. His debut single, "You've Got to Stand for Something" became a popular anthem for American soldiers fighting in the Gulf War and helped to establish him as a neotraditionalist country act with songs that catered primarily to the American working class. Under RCA's tenure, he recorded five studio albums and a Greatest Hits package. By the later half of the 1990s, however, his sales and chart performance began to decline, and he was dropped from the label's roster. more »

Oh,she's tender but she's tough
And still willing to love
If there is a man,man enough to be her man
Fighting back the tears and the wolves

But she keeps smiling just as hard as she can
She's twenty-nine and holding the world on her shoulder
They're all counting on mama
And she ain't about to let them down

(Oh)there's no time to worry about turning thirty
When your twenty-nine and holding
The world on your shoulders
Yes the one who she once loved

Just didn't have the guts
To be a lover or father or much of a man
Yeah,he just had to have his space
So she put him in his place

Out in the road with his suitcase in hand
She's twenty-nine and holding the world on her shoulder
They're all counting on mama
And she ain't about to let them down

(Oh)there's no time to worry about turning thirty
When your twenty-nine and holding
The world on your shoulders
Well,it's the kids and it's the job

It's like the kitchen and it's a mop
Hey,it's the life of a woman that's on her own
And Lord,I just gotta say
That we all ought to be ashamed

If our biggest trouble is just turning old and gray
She's twenty-nine and holding the world on her shoulder
They're all counting on mama
And she ain't about to let them down

(Oh)there's no time to worry about turning thirty
When your twenty-nine and holding
The world on your shoulders
She's twenty-nine and holding the world on her shoulders
