I′m beggin', beggin′ you

So put your loving hand out, baby

I'm beggin', beggin′ you

So put your loving hand out, darlin′

Ridin' high, when I was king

I played it hard and fast, ′cause I had everything

I walked away, but you warned me then

But easy come and easy go and it would end

I'm fightin′ hard

To hold my own

Just can't make it all alone

I′m holdin' on

I can't fall back

I′m just a con about to fade to black

I′m beggin', beggin′ you

Put your loving hand out, baby

I'm beggin′, beggin' you

So put your loving hand out, darlin′

I'm beggin', beggin′ you

So put your loving hand out, baby

I′m beggin', beggin′ you

So put your loving hand out, darlin'

I need you to understand

Tried so hard to be your man

The kind of man you want in the end

Only then can I begin to live again

An empty shell

I used to be

The shadow of my life

Was hangin′ over me

A broken man

But I don't know

Won′t even stand the devil's dance

To win my soul

I'm beggin′, beggin′ you

Put your loving hand out, baby

I'm beggin′, beggin' you

So put your loving hand out, darlin′

I'm beggin′, beggin' you

So put your loving hand out, baby

I'm beggin′, beggin′ you

So put your loving hand out, darlin'
