Dignity and Pride, Paula Wilson

Lyrics

Dignity and Pride There's things gone on before you filled my life you ought to know I hope that when I've laid it bare you'll stick with me, not go I'll need you more than ever with my chips spilt on the ground And trust you'll still be lovin' me, still be hangin' 'round I need you hangin' 'round me Need you by my side Need you lovin' me like mad For dignity and pride I need you hangin' 'round me Walkin' hand in hand I need you listenin' in right now Sure hope you'll understand My folks split up when I was young, my dad walked out the door I stayed behind at home with mum the eldest kid of four Four mouths to feed, no money, and the farm dried up from drought That's when I started learnin' what this life is all about I need you hangin' 'round me Need you by my side Need you lovin' me like mad For dignity and pride I need you hangin' 'round me Walkin' hand in hand I need you listenin' in right now Sure hope you'll understand My mum would go to town each night loose blouse and painted lips Pour beer and chat to strangers takin in her woman's hips Some nights she got so busy that she never made it home And on those nights she'd ring me softly cryin on the phone I need you hangin' 'round me Need you by my side Need you lovin' me like mad For dignity and pride I need you hangin' 'round me Walkin' hand in hand I need you listenin' in right now Sure hope you'll understand I need you hangin' 'round me Need you by my side Need you lovin' me like mad For dignity and pride Need you lovin' me like mad For dignity and pride
