Swallow my pride ('84)

Swallow my pride ('84) Lyrics

She looked at me with dignity:
"There's one thing you got to see
Even though we're headed for war
This nations prouder than ever before
Yes, there's a spirit in the air
We're more American than anywhere!"
I just smiled 'cause I could tell
This little girl's going to hell

Now I wouldn't mind
If you swallow my pride
Make me feel alright
Deep inside, feel alright

All the warmth in her heart
Can't keep my blood from running cold
First I fell for her looks
Now I just wanna go for the throat
I tried to tell her a hundred times
This little girl didn't understand at all
Pride comes before a fall
