I'm Just a Girl is the fourth studio album by American country music singer Deana Carter, released on March 18, 2003, via Arista Nashville.

Background

[edit]

After parting ways with Capitol Nashville in 2001, and following her divorce from her ex-husband of five years Chris DiCorce, recording for the album took place primarily in Carter's home, her first record to do so.[2] I'm Just a Girl is described as being a more upbeat album compared to her previous records.[3]

The album spawned two singles: "There's No Limit" and its title track. "There's No Limit" was released in October 2002 and became Carter's first top 20 hit in four years, peaking at number 14 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart. The title track was released in May 2003 as the second and final single, becoming a minor top 40 hit on the same chart. "You and Tequila", a song which Carter wrote with Matraca Berg, would later be recorded by Kenny Chesney for his 13th album Hemingway's Whiskey (2010). His version featured Grace Potter and was released as that album's fourth single. It received a nomination at the 54th Annual Grammy Awards in 2012 for Best Country Song.
