I'm leaving for to’ get my money back ,
A guaranteed result,
Tearing pages from the book,
As I sow the field with salt,
Nuthin’ shall ever grow again,
Until you tow the plough,
And you’re always telling me to be proud…………………
Well, I believe that the common man,
Still has power over his soul,
Even though they sell us dreams on television shows,
We’re consuming this and consuming that,
But I’m sure you were never told,
That Jesus was a socialist,
You know he didn’t care for gold,
And you’re always telling me to be proud…………………
Well I saw the reverend John a’ herding up his flock,
Chasing down those wayward sheep,
He’s to keep em’ under lock,
For we know if they’d think for themselves,
They’d all run away,
Taking the night with them,
Leaving us with the day,
And you were always telling me to be proud,
Well, pride is a deadly sin,
I read it in a book,
And I know the world would be aggrieved,
Seeing as I took,
I took the book and with it, rolled myself a cigarette,
Just skip the lesson yet heed the past least we not forget,
You were always telling me to be proud!!!!!!!!
