Humble me, humble me
Don?t let me forget who I am
Humble me, humble me

Or them what you?re made of
And when you hear me askin?

Things you never had, no
And things you know you can?t bring

Ooh, with nothin? to eat
And remind me of the other man
Oh, with no shoes on his feet, yeah
Now, ooh, let me be grateful, oh
For all that I?ve seen
And all that I have here
And they?ll be around me, ooh yeah, now

Ooh, now grateful for these old legs, oh yeah
That I might jump and come and shout, yeah oh
Grateful for the music
