You don't know what true love is
Until you know the blues
You don't know the blues until
You have known true love

You'll never understand hard work
Until you've felt the blisters
And you'll never know what blisters are
Until you've worked for them

You can't hold a head in pride
Without hanging it in shame
You'll never know the shame of loss
Until you lose your pride

You'll never climb a mountainside
Without leaving the valley below
You never love a valley so deep
'Til your mountains leave you go

(repeat verse one)
