who be that Proud man
whose hair in silver white
shows strength and might
the one who gave you animal flesh
and cut it to fit your mouth
who be that Proud man
whose hair in silver white
your sardonic mind learned to fight
when you were young and so naive
and only noticed what was not given
and took no notice of what was given
who be that Proud man
whose hair in silver white
did you surpass in your height
And now can see the sorrow upon his face
the hours of work and his humble place
for from the cave did we first come
yet father was the one
that did teach what was to be done
