High Steppin' Proud

(album: We All Got Together And... - 1972)

I was a high stepping proud man one time king of the sidewalk fed all the girls a line
You came along and love laid a heavy hand on me
High stepping proud man went down to his knees
For a while I enjoyed just being under your thumb
But after a while the nerve of love grew numb
Then I knew my heart was changing crying out long and loud
To once again become a man high stepping proud
High stepping proud man down on my knees
Beckon to your every wish and your every need
Oh I know it won't be long before I break those vows
And once again become a man high stepping proud

There's a lot of things in life I'm glad I didn't miss
And your good good love rates mighty high on the list
But my restless spirit and a wedding band don't get along somehow
Especially since I long to be high stepping proud
High stepping proud man...
