I may get drunk, every once in a while
I may raise hell, that's just my style

I work hard every day
May become rich and don't complain
While they sail their boats and they fly their jets
They can break us down, but we ain't broke yet.

Pay attention, or you'll miss this
You're my witness, all your business

You can take my house, i don't need it
You can take my ride, you can keep it
But i'm alive and i'm still breathing
You can't take away my pride. (2x)

Yeah.

Leave her alone, the tears in her eye
When all things fail, but we ain't gonna die.

You can weep or change or hold your breath
You can waste your time, but we ain't dead yet.
They can raise their hopes, they can place their bets
They can break us down, but we ain't broke yet.

Pay attention, or you'll miss this
You're my witness, all your business.

You can take my house, i don't need it
You can take my ride, you can keep it
But i'm alive and i'm still breathing
You can't take away my pride. (2x)

I ain't breaking
I ain't bleeding
I ain't wasting another minute
I been praying
I ain't shaking
You can't take away my pride!

You only lose when you stop believing..
I've got my friends and we ain't leaving!

You can take my house, i don't need it
You can take my ride, you can keep it
But i'm alive and i'm still breathing
You can't take away my pride. (2x)

I ain't breaking
I ain't bleeding
I ain't wasting another minute
I been praying
I ain't shaking
You can't take away my pride!

You can take my house, i don't need it
Take my ride, you can keep it (take my ride)
Everything's gonna be alright
