Walk with me not on me talk to me not about me
Keep me don't hurt me be proud of your man
Laugh with me not at me look at me not through me
Face me don't disgrace me be proud of your man

Pull with me not against me see some good in the bad in me
Reassure me don't destroy me be proud of your man
Be behind me not above me hold me don't control me
Help me don't hurt me be proud of your man
[ guitar - piano ]
Walk with me not on me...

Darling I love you can't you see so help me and love me all you can
And if you love me then love me for what I am not what I should be
Woman be proud of your man
