Lyrics
Just leave me with the pride that I worked for
Now they've taken the reason away
Just leave me with the pride that I worked for today
Build on rock, or build on sand
They're never gonna lend a hand
So nothing grows or nothing stands
I can't take anymore, I can't take anymore
'Cause there's not a lot of space for me
But I've still got my dignity
I've got my price, don't say I'm free
I can't take anymore, I can't take anymore
But I'm hungry, I could eat anything
And I'm hungry, ooh, let's dance, ooh, let's swing
And all that I hear are the words that she sings
Now they've taken it all, now they've taken it all
Just leave me with the pride that I worked for
Now they've taken the reason away
Just leave me with the pride that I worked for today
Just leave me with the pride that I worked for
Now they've taken the reason away
Just leave me with the pride that I worked for today
I'd rather take this cure for life
Than make myself a sacrifice
When living is to pay the price
I can't take anymore, I can't take anymore
It takes a while to understand
When your eyes are full of sand
When only time is in your hands
I can't take anymore, I can't take anymore
But I'm hungry, I could eat anything
And I'm hungry ooh, let's dance, ooh, let's swing
And all that I hear are the words that she sings
Now they've taken it all, now they've taken it all
Just leave me with the pride that I worked for
Now they've taken the reason away
Just leave me with the pride that I worked for today
Just leave me with the pride that I worked for
Now they've taken the reason away
Just leave me with the pride that I worked for today
Oh, but I'm hungry, I could eat anything
And I'm hungry ooh, let's dance, ooh, let's swing
And all that I hear are the words that she sings
Now they've taken it all, now they've taken it all
Just leave me with the pride that I worked for
Now they've taken the reason away
Just leave me with the pride that I worked for today
Leave me with the pride that I worked for
Now they've taken the reason away
Leave me with the pride that I worked for today
Leave me with the pride
With the pride that I worked for today
Just leave me with the pride that I worked for
Now they've taken the reason away
Just leave me with the pride that I worked for today
Leave me with the pride
Leave me with the pride
