I had too much pride to keep you away, yeah
Couldn't give in, I had nothing to say
We could have made it, but I never tried
You can blame it on me
Don't you know I got too much pride?
I know too much pride can hurt you so bad, yeah
It makes you forget everything that you had
Now I ought to know, 'cause darling I found
Without you to love, my world would come down
I got too much pride
I got too much pride
Oh baby, don't you know how I cried?
Now I'm on my knees
And my pride is all gone, yeah
Oh, please come on home
And I'm begging you, baby
Oh, won't you come on home?
I'm down on my knees, yeah
My pride is all gone
Woo, baby
