"She's Tough"
(Joe Collins / Richard Fagan / Mark Irwin)

Well, I was looking for a little bit more than just another pretty face
Someone who would be strong and true if trouble ever came 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

Well, she's soft and sweet and she's good to me even when the times are bad
She picks me up with a gentle touch anytime I'm feelin' sad
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 strong as steel and hers is all I'll ever need

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

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 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 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
