rosemary’s granddaughter

“i am rosemary’s granddaughter, the spitting image of my father, and i am not my biggest fan. . .

i don’t even think that’s how the song goes. i have no idea where it came from or who sings it, but i’ve been singing that line over and over to myself since saturday.

    Who I Am (4:15) sung by Jessica Andrews
    Brett James / Troy Verges

    If I live to be a hundred
    and never see the seven wonders
    that’ll be alright
    if I don’t make it to the big leagues
    if I never win a grammy
    I’m gonna be just fine
    ’cause I know exactly who I am

    CHORUS
    I am rosemary’s granddaughter
    the spitting image of my father
    when the day is done, my momma’s
    still my biggest fan
    sometimes I’m clueless and I’m clumsy
    but I’ve got friends that love me
    and they know just right where I stand
    it’s all a part of me
    that’s who I am

    so when I make a big mistake
    when I fall flat on my face
    I know I’ll be alright
    should my tender heart be broken
    I will cry those teardrops knowin’
    I will be just fine
    ’cause nothin’ changes who I am

    REPEAT CHORUS

    I’m a saint and I’m a sinner
    I’m a loser, I’m a winner
    I am steady and unstable
    I am young and I am able

    REPEAT CHORUS (X2)

    that’s who I am

    I dont understand what “rosemary’s granddaughter” is referring to?Is it an allusion to the movie Rosemary’s baby or is it biblical?someone please explain!thanks so much!

    She’s just giving a personal touch, the name of one of her grandmothers. That’s all. No biblical or movie references.

    I love this song. It’s just awesome!

    This song fits me personally. It could fit almost all/any of us. Because we all have some if not all of these traits? It is like a confidence boost. Because we aren’t perfect & most of us won’t see or do any/all of the things in this life. It is just an awesome song & one we can relate too.

    Rosemary, the evergreen plant, is also a symbol of remembrance.

    Hey y’all!

    This is something I wrote and I just felt like posting it. Tomorrow off to Memphis I go until August 19th!

    If I live to be a hundred
    And never see the seven wonders
    That’ll be alright
    If I dont make it to the big leagues
    If I never win a Grammy,
    Im gonna be just fine
    ‘Cause I know exactly who I am

    The spitting image of my father
    And when the day is done
    My father’s still my biggest fan.
    Sometimes Im clueless and Im clumsy

    But Ive got friends who love me,
    And they know just here I stand
    Its all a part of me
    And thats who I am

    So when I make a big mistake
    When I fall flat on my face,
    I know Ill be alright.
    Should my heart be broken
    I will cry those teardrops knowin’
    I will be just fine
    ‘Cause nothin’ changes who I am

    Im a saint and Im a sinner
    Im a loser, Im a winner
    Im steady and unstable
    Im young but Im able

    C-ya!
