(Harlan Howard)

I've got my pride
I've got my pride
When the nights're cold and there's no one to hold
I've got my pride.

I should have said forgive me dear
But I've got my pride
I wanted you to hold and kiss me dear
But I've got my pride.

So I let you walk right out that door
And I kept my tears inside
Now she's got you and the love's so true
While I've got my pride.

I've got my pride
I've got my pride
When the nights're cold and there's no one to hold
I've got my pride.

--- Instrumental ---

You tried to make me listen
But I turned away
Has my heart overflood with words
I wanted to say.

My pride told me that I was right
But oh, how it lied
She's got your ring and everything
While I've got my pride.

I've got my pride
I've got my pride
When the nights're cold and there's no one to hold
I've got my pride.

When the nights're cold and there's no one to hold
I've got my pride...
