Almost There

Lyrics from The Princess and the Frog

I don't have time for dancin'
That's just gonna have to wait a while
Ain't got time for messing around
And it's not my style
This old town can slow you down
People takin' the easy way
But I know exactly where I'm going
Gettin' closer and closer every day

And I'm almost there
I'm almost there
People down here think I'm crazy
But I don't care
Trials and tribulations
I've had my share
There ain't nothing gonna stop me now
'Cause I'm almost there

I remember Daddy told me
"Fairytales can come true
You gotta make 'em happen
It all depends on you"
So I work real hard each and every day
Now things for sure are going my way
Just doing what I do
Look out, boys
I'm coming through

And I'm almost there
I'm almost there
People gonna come here
From everywhere
And I'm almost there
I'm almost there

There's been trials and tribulations
You know I've had my share
But I've climbed a mountain
I've crossed a river
And I'm almost there
I'm almost there
I'm almost there!
