Too proud to bow

Verse

I learned long ago.

To go with the flow.

I learned that you do.

What you’ve got to do.

Chorus

When the wind blows the willow bends

But the oaks too proud to bow.

Too damn proud, too damn proud to bow.

Verse

Seen proud men crumble

But I stay humble.

Every now and then.

We all need a friend.

Chorus

When the wind blows the willow bends

But the oaks too proud to bow.

Too damn proud, too damn proud to bow.

Verse

We’re flesh, we’re bone.

We’re not made of stone.

By now you should know.

You don’t stand alone.

Chorus

When the wind blows the willow bends

But the oaks too proud to bow.

Too damn proud, too damn proud to bow.

Verse

I once was like you.

I thought that I knew.

What was best for me.

Little did I see.

Chorus

When the wind blows the willow bends

But the oaks too proud to bow.

Too damn proud, too damn proud to bow.
