Bertha Bryan Lyrics

And Bertha Bryan said listen grandson
you can be anything or anyone
and I still believe what Bertha said to me
you can be anything you wanna be
you can be anything you wanna be

I once was a sailor
I sailed the seven seas
I once was a tailor
but I could not sew the seeds
I've been almost everywhere
but it's all been in my dreams
and that's not the wrong way
but it's wrong enough for me

It's not a sad song if it makes you feel good
and that's not the wrong road
but you would if you could
ride the range, run all day
play the afternoon
and that's not wrong way
but it's wrong enough for you, wrong enough for me
then it's wrong enough for you

Can you hear the wind it blows through the trees
it's such a nice day, such a nice summer breeze
Sometimes I recall what Bertha said to me
boy you can be anything that you wanna be
that you wanna be you can be
anything that you wanna be
and Bertha Bryan said listen grandson
you can be anything or anyone
boy you can be anything that you wanna be
that you wanna be you can be
anything that you wanna be

you can be anything or anyone

you can be anything you wanna be
you can be anything you wanna be

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
