Lyrics
Ain't You Proud of Me Lord
by: SD Gross
Ain't you proud of me Lord? Ain't you proud today?
I killed 10,000 people lord. They only got in the way.
I know you're thinking that something's gone wrong.
I've been misled from your hand.
Though I've done wrong, I have to be proud.
I've only acted like man.
Ain't you proud of me Lord? Ain't you proud today?
I'd lie or steal or do most anything if it made things go my way.
I know you're thinking that something's gone wrong.
I've been misled from your hand.
I only done what I've been taught to do.
I've only acted like man.
Ain't you proud of me Lord? Ain't you proud today?
I'm not sure that you're there Lord. You'd only get in the way.
I know you're thinking that something's gone wrong.
I've been misled from your hand.
Though I've done wrong I have to be proud.
I've only acted like man.
