It's My Pride

Once we were happy then suddenly you left me I said
 Why, oh, why?
 Here's what happened
 You got on the wrong track, yeah
 Then asked me to take you back
 My, oh, my
 How you hurt me
 Teased me
 Pleased him
 Instead of me
 I felt so used, you know why I refused
 It's my pride
 Oh baby, you know it
 It's my pride, yeah
 There were times when you missed me and times when you kissed me
 Sigh, sigh, sigh
 But here's what happened
 You shut me out from your embrace
 Found someone else to take my place
 Cry, cry, cry
 How you hurt me
 Teased me
 Pleased him
 Instead of me
 I lost all I could lose, you know why I refused
 I felt so used, you know why I refused
 It's my pride
 Oh you know it baby
 It's my pride, yeah
 I thought if I could change my way then you might come to me some day
 Try, try, try
 But here's what happened
 Shook me up just like a rattle
 And I gave up that losin' battle
 Why, oh, why?
 How you hurt me, oh
 Teased me, oh
 Pleased him, oh
 Instead of me, oh
 I felt so abused, you know why I refused
 It's my pride
 I'm gonna tell you one more time little girl
 It's my pride
 Yeah you know it baby
 It's my pride
 My pride, baby
 It's my pride
