[Lyrics]
Each day man tastes victory, some big some small
But the difference for me is you don't need to see the trophies on my wall
Some men chase the American dream, of two cars in every garage
But like a thirsty man crawlin' thru the desert it's all a mirage
Yes I'm "Everybit As Proud" of the small things you do
Yes I'm "Everybit As Proud" of you
You build me up, when I'm down you wipe away my blues
And when it comes to lovin' me baby, you know what to use
I'll dress you up in romance, instead of some fancy gown
And late at night you're right here with me instead of roamin' around
Yes I'm "Everybit As Proud" of the small things you do
Yes I'm "Everybit As Proud" of you
(guitar solo)
Yes I'm "Everybit As Proud" of the small things you do
Yes I'm "Everybit As Proud" of you
You don't need no coats of sable, expensive jewelry
Cause what you've got you got a lot and baby that's alright with me
I'll dress you up in romance, instead of some fancy gown
And late at night you're right here with me instead of roamin' around
Yes I'm "Everybit As Proud" of the small things you do
Yes I'm "Everybit As Proud" of you
(repeat/out)
