Almost Proud

Eric Gibson, Mike Barber

I started life down at the bottom
There were those who kept me there
And I did things I'm not proud of
To see if anybody cared

That's the wrong kind of attention
I was young and dumb and loud
Now I'm quiet and I'm older
Would you believe I'm almost proud?

Almost proud, almost proud
Somehow I landed here, I don't know how
Almost proud, almost proud
I'm better when I'm not part of the crowd
When I think of where I came from and all I've been allowed
It makes me for a minute, almost proud

Now I'd grow a little garden
If I could keep away the deer
We would have us quite a harvest
It's so peaceful living here

And I planted her some roses
And it seems we're good for now
There's a cardinal at my feeder
And it makes me almost proud

Almost proud, almost proud
Somehow I landed here, I don't know how
Almost proud, almost proud
I'm better when I'm not part of the crowd
When I think of where I came from, all I've been allowed
It makes me for a minute, almost proud

When I think of where I came from and all I've been allowed
It makes me for a minute, almost proud
