Pride's Not Hard To Swallow
Mark Chesnut

I wish you'd look who's crawlin' back to you
I never thought I'd live to see today
I swore to you the day
I left, this time I'd go for good
And I was even proud enough to tell myself I could

And it took a lot of lonely nights to ever change my mind
It took a lot of missin' you, and things I left behind
Intending to keep goin', but the goin' got too rough
And pride's not hard to swallow
Once you chew it long enough

I know we won't always see eye to eye
But if you'll take me back this time I'll really try
So many things I should have done, so much I failed to do
I've never needed any one as much as I need you

And it took a lot of lonely nights to ever change my mind
It took a lot of missin' you, and things I left behind
Intending to keep goin', but the goin' got too rough
And pride's not hard to swallow
Once you chew it long enough

No pride's not hard to swallow
