1. Is the song you're thinking of Tough by Craig Morgan?
   
   Artist: Craig Morgan
   Title: Tough
   Album: Little Bit Of Life
   
   
   She’s in the kitchen at the crack of dawn
   Bacon’s on, coffee’s strong
   Kids running wild, taking off their clothes
   If she’s a nervous wreck, well it never shows
   Takes one to football and one to dance
   Hits the Y for aerobics class
   Drops by the bank, stops at the store
   Has on a smile when I walk through the door
   The last to go to bed, she’ll be the first one up
   And I thought I was tough
   
   Chorus
   She’s strong, pushes on, can’t slow her down
   She can take anything life dishes out
   There was a time
   Back before she was mine
   When I thought I was tough
   
   We sat there five years ago
   The doctors let us know
   She’d have to fight to live, I broke down and cried
   She held me and said it’s gonna be alright
   She wore that wig to church
   Pink ribbon pinned there on her shirt
   No room for fear, full of faith
   Hands held high singing Amazing Grace
   Never once complained, refusing to give up
   And I thought I was tough
   
   Chorus
   She’s strong, pushes on, can’t slow her down
   She can take anything life dishes out
   There was a time
   Back before she was mine
   When I thought I was tough
   
   She’s a gentle word, the sweetest kiss
   A velvet touch against my skin
   I’ve seen her cry, I’ve seen her break
   But in my eyes, she’ll always be strong
   
   There was a time
   Back before she was mine
   When I thought I was tough
