i know you want to leave me

but i refuse to let you go

if i have to beg and plead for your sympathy

i don't mind cause you mean that much to me

ain't too proud to beg and you know it

please don't leave me girl(don't you go)

ain't too proud to plead baby baby

please don't leave me girl(don't you go)

now i heard a crying man

is half a man with no sense of pride

but if i have to cry to keep you

i don't mind weepin if it will keep you by my side

ain't too proud to beg sweet darling

ooh don't leave me girl(don't you go)

ain't too proud to plead baby baby

please don't leave me girl(don't you go)

if i have to sleep on your doorstep all night and day

just to keep you from walking away

let your friends laugh even this i can stand

cause i want to keep you anyway i can

ain't too proud to beg sweet darling

ooh don't leave me girl(don't you go)

ain't too proud plead baby baby

please don't leave me girl(don't you go)
