Foolish Pride

Mamma said "don't you spend a dime"

When your work ain't paying and it's only part time

Put your love aside and get ready to leave

But the girl you love is coming home

So you pick up a guitar and you play to the tone

Of her voice as she tells you on the telephone she's here

And you're making her dinner as she's laying in bed

Cus' the car ride was long and she wanted to rest her head

How will you give her all she wants

She lets her guard down with the sun

Put away your foolish pride for once

You can go through the worst and still have won

And your oldman's giving you the ways of the world

So you can get a good job and meet a pretty girl

but when you first find her you realise he's selling it short

Cus' when you met her thought you'd never fall again

Cus' there's a hole to your heart from when they ripped it from your chest

Now you got this girl and she's bringing out the best of you

How will you give her all she wants

She lets her guard down with the sun

Put away your foolish pride for once

You can go through the worst and still have won

How will you give her all she wants

She lets her guard down with the sun

Put away your foolish pride for once

You can go through the worst and still have won

Put away your foolish pride for once

You can go through the worst and still have won
