Jim Reeves Pride Goes Before A Fall Lyrics

Pride Goes Before A Fall Lyrics

Might as well admit it, you don't really love me

You've been acting funny for so long

It hurts to think that you think you're above me

But it hurts more to admit that I've been wrong



Need a bottle and a table, I can find those

Maybe they will help speed up time's crazy crawl

Might as well go around and join the winos

Ain't it funny how pride goes before a fall?



Yes, pride goes before a fall, I've got a feeling

That I'm gonna sink much lower than them all

When we first met I went way above the ceiling

Ain't it funny how pride goes before a fall?



Pour the wine, dim the lights and play the jukebox

Dance with every Sue and Betty that's around

Take her out and try your luck that's what's expected

What's the difference? It can't bring your honor down



You are now a full fledged member of the rat race

Forget everything that's decent have a ball

What's the difference if you die in this or that place?

Ain't it funny how pride goes before a fall?



(What's the difference if you die in this or that place?)

Ain't it funny how pride goes before a fall?
