Brenda Lee - Too Heavy To Carry Lyrics






Tar, paper, shanty on an old dirt road
Seein' my mother workin' made my blood run cold
People makin' fun, made me wonder and doubt
Why the Lord chose our family to have to go without
I'd shout out in anger, a child stricken with fears
When my ma couldn't stand it more she'd, dry, away my tears
I look back a women, and it's fresh in my mind
A girl leavin' home tryin' to find
The answer to a question that I ask every day
How can Mama cry so softly and still look up and say
The Lord never makes a burden too heavy to carry
Never puts a challenge where it can't be won
Some people have to try just a little bit harder
Before their life's work is done

My strength built of rock from what I thought was sand
Mother was rewarded 'cause she earned that, promised land
See my reflection eyes of my little song
He spoke words that told me my life's work was done
When he said
Lord never makes a burden too heavy too carry
And he never puts a challenge where it can't be won
I said, now, some people have to try just a little bit harder
Before their life's work is done
I said, the good Lord never makes a burden too heavy to carry
He ain't gonna put a challenge where it can't be won...

  1. B.... 1....

    Separating over loose skin and not being able to be intimate? That's not the reason or the whole truth. There is something much deeper going on here.

  2. K.... S....

    I don't understand why they feel the need to have bariatric surgery? Most say they lost some weight naturally beforehand, so why not just keep going?

    K.... S....

    She has lost a lot of weight, so she has a lot of extra skin where the fat was so they need to remove it or it could cause painful rashes

    K.... S....

    @Hoda EL ETRIBI yes I understand she has alot of excess skin from the weight loss. I am talking about the surgery she had to help her lose weight initially

    K.... S....

    Katen Staines she didn’t have the surgery she naturally lost her weight

  3. B.... ....

    why would you separate from someone who has the same issue as you and knows what its like...no normal person is gonna make you feel any better

    B.... ....

    Exactly.. there's something else going on here.

  4. F.... M....

    She is my social studies teacher and she is a mazing

    F.... M....

    Same and true

    F.... M....

    Well she used to be. She’s the best tho

    F.... M....

    Yeah she used to be mine

  5. L.... L....

    No point in separating. You won’t be comfortable with anyone else with the excess skin so might as well stay together and stick it out.

  6. M.... S....

    "The skin of a 100 year old woman".... nope.

  7. Z.... C....

    Please get back together!

  8. Z.... l....

    Welp u can use the excess skin to help others grow skin?

    Z.... l....

    Zar lenlius I don't think you can do that. I think you have to use your own skin if I'm not mistaken🤔 that would be cool though

    Z.... l....

    Probably not. The loose skin at this point isn’t healthy primarily because of its lack of elasticity. Another body would reject it because it doesn’t function properly anymore.

  9. F.... E....

    She was my US History teacher in 7th grade, I loved her.

    F.... E....

    Froggy Momo ay nbjh right lol

    F.... E....

    Peter Wyszynski yeah!! I’m a junior now so I haven’t seen her in a few years but she was great. Better than Teivans.

    F.... E....

    Me too! I was in 7th grade during the year of 2010-2011, and I remember when she left for surgery and we had a sub for a few weeks. I’m a college junior now, it’s so weird to see how much she’s changed

    F.... E....

    oh that’s cool, I had her for sixth grade last year

  10. �.... �....

    Sad irony

  11. h.... l....

    She's beautiful inside and out

    h.... l....

    hien le
    Well that's a lie that she herself would disagree too since her extra skin is her complaint. But she does seem like a beautiful PERSON with a pretty FACE.

  12. b.... ....

    Her face is beautiful though

  13. I.... J....

    People are such morons. How does ending your marriage effect trying to lose weight together.
