Beggin'

Put your loving hand out, baby

I'm begging

(Begging) Begging (You)

Put your loving hand out, baby

(Begging) Begging you

Put your loving hand out, baby

Riding high when I was king

Played it hard and fast 'cause I had everything

You walked away, warned me then

That easy come and easy go and it would end

(Begging) I'm begging you

Won't you give your hand out, baby?

(Begging) Begging (You)

Put your loving hand out, baby

I need you to understand

That I'm trying so hard to be a man

The kind of man you'd want in the end

Only then can I begin to live again

An empty shell of used-to-be

The shadow of my life is hanging over me

A broken man without a goal

Don't even stand a devil's chance to win my soul

(Begging) Begging you

Won't you give your hand out, baby?

(Begging) Begging you

Put your loving hand out, baby

I'm fighting hard to hold my own

No, I just can't make it all alone

I'm holding on, I can't fall back

Now that big brass ring is a shade of black

(Begging) I'm begging you

Won't you give your hand out, baby?

(Begging) Begging (You)

Put your loving hand out, baby

(Begging) Begging you
