MATTER OF PRIDE (John Wilson) [BBC In Concert]

You leave your woman

You hurt her inside

You can't go home

You mess up your pride

Why don't you call her?

Don't run and hide

Risking your love

Matter of pride

Yeah


I left my woman

I made her cry

Sitting here lonely

I'm wondering why

Why don't I call her?

Make it alright

Risking my love

Through a matter of pride

Yeah


Too many times I've been let down

What to do when you're breaking your heart

Through it all I've never lied to you

Right from the start

Opened my heart

Right from the start

Oh yeah


[guitar solo]


Why don't I call her?

Make it alright

Risking my love

Through a matter of pride

Yeah, matter of pride

Through a matter of pride.
