Slim Dusty - A Prouder Man Than You lyrics

Your rating:
If you fancy that your people come from better stock 

than mine,

If you hint at higher breedin' by a word or by a sign

If you're proud because of fortune or the clever things 

you do

Then I'll play no second fiddle, I'm a prouder man than 

you.



If you think that your profession has the more 

gentility

And that you are condescending to be seen along with me

If you notice that I'm shabby while your clothes are 

spruce and new

You have only got to hint it, I'm a prouder man than 

you.



[Instrumental]



If you have a swell companion when you see me on the 

street

And you think that I'm too common for your toney friend 

to meet

So that I don't in pass in closely, fail to come within 

your view

Then be blind to me forever, I'm a prouder man than 

you.



If you're character be blameless, if you're outward 

past be clean

While you know my antecendants, are not what they 

should have been

Do not risk contamination, save you name whate'er you 

do

Birds o' a feather fly together, I'm a prouder bird 

than you.



[Instrumental}



If you fancy that your people come from better stock 

than mine

If you hint at higher breedin', by a word or by a sign

If you're proud because of fortune or the clever things 

you do

Then I'll play no second fiddle, I'm a prouder man than 

you.



If you think that your profession has the more 

gentility

And that you are condescending to be seen along with me

If you notice that I'm shabby while your clothes are 

spruce and new

You have only got to hint it, I'm a prouder man than 

you.
