I've Got My Pride But I Got To Feed The Kids - previously unreleased

Lyrics

If I can only find a job to know that I bring back baby's smile again
 And make her feel quite proud to be my wife
 But for every job, there's ten good men
 They only want to work again, and they're sick and tired of just barely getting by
 Well, I've got to find a job today 'cause I got all those bills to pay
 Sometimes I drink to keep my headaches in
 You know, standing in some welfare line ain't ever been no way a man
 I've got my pride, but I've got to feed the kids
 ♪
 Sometimes I think those better days ain't ever gonna look my way
 Seems the more I wait, the more I waste my time
 All the weeks turn into years so fast
 Found out living in my past is the only way to keep my hopes alive
 Well I've got to find a job, so now I know what it feels like now
 The face today that put me on the scale
 Well I'll throw my unemployment check, it keeps the landlord off my back
 I've got my pride, but I've got to feed the kids
 You know, standing in some welfare line ain't ever been no way a man
 I've got my pride, but I've got to feed the kids
