i\' m proud of my good taste in women
but they\'ve never been proud of me
and when i\' m convicted and sentenced
i can not plead insanity
i hold my head high for a short while
a quick walk through vanity fair
the things i would do for a brief smile
before i went back to despair
my heart\'s crying out for the freedom
that i have read so much about
God is always there when i need Him
He faithfully shows the way out

should i bow my neck
to babylonian kings
just like paul had a thorne in the flesh?
give me your tambourine
let me dance
let me sing
till i\' m strong
and empowered
and refreshed
