About the Song
Lyrics
This song was written for a Relief Society birthday celebration. It if for all girls or women who remember the old movie, Johnny Lingo, and who want to sing about how it feels to have personal worth.
According to the movie, to be worth 8 cows was definitely a goal each one of should aspire to become.
Speak it loudly, with conviction:
I'm worth 8 cows!
My potential. no restrictions!
I'm worth 8 cows.
Yes, I know where I am going,
Who I am, and I keep growing.
I'm worth 8 cows!
I'm worth 8 cows!
I know why I came to earth,
I'm worth 8 cows!
I made plans before my birth,
I'm worth 8 cows.
I will fill my special mission
This will be my life's ambition!
I'm worth 8 cows!
I'm worth 8 cows!
I can do so much that is good
I'm worth 8 cows!
With my worldwide sisterhood,
I'm worth 8 cows.
Working in my ward and stake,
What a difference I can make!
I'm worth 8 cows!
I'm worth 8 cows!
I make choices that are right.
I'm worth 8 cows!
Then I radiate a true light,
I'm worth 8 cows!
Teaching, caring, helping others,
Neighbors, friends, sisters, brothers,
I'm worth 8 cows!
I'm worth 8 cows!
