Too Proud Lyrics


Too proud to say you were wrong
You let me leave you
You knew that I was gone long before
I stopped pretending
For one who chose my love so carefully
You should have loved me better
I'm not one to call the blame
For who's in love they are all the same
Too proud to say they're wrong
Too proud and then they're gone
And who was I to think I'd change it all
I've always been alone
I'm met often freedom and not a prisoner to the cause
And all my pain is by my own hands
For one who thought love could last forever
I should have checked my record
Now I see that love is not blind
It just stands close and watch it all from behind

Too proud to say I'm wrong
Too proud and then I'm gone
Too proud to say we were wrong
Too proud and then it's gone along
(instrumental solo)
Who was I to think I'd change it all
I've always been alone
I'm met often freedom and not a prisoner to the cause
And all my pain is by my own hands
For one who thought love could last forever
I should have checked my record
Now I see that love is not blind
It just stands close and watch it all from behind
Too proud to say I'm wrong
Too proud and then I'm gone
Too proud to say we were wrong
Too proud and then it's gone

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

"America’s best purveyor of red-clay soul blues…"
Sam McClain was born on the northern edge of the Bible Belt in Monroe, Louisiana in 1943. As a five year old, he began singing in his mother’s Gospel Church. It was then that he realized singing was his mission.
He left home when he was thirteen to escape an abusive stepfather and followed local R&B guitarist, "Little Melvin" Underwood through the Chitlin Circuit, first as his valet and then as lead vocalist himself at 15.
