Standing in the Shadows of Motown movie - Ain't Too Proud To Beg lyrics

rate me

Song by Ben Harper<br /><br>

I know you wanna leave me <br>

But I refuse to let you go <br>

If I have to beg, plead for your sympathy <br>

I don't mind 'cause you mean that much to me <br>

<br>

Ain't too proud to beg, and you know it (sweet darlin') <br>

Please don't leave me, girl (don't you go) <br>

Ain't too proud to plead, baby, baby <br>

Please don't leave me, girl (don't you go) <br>

<br>

Now I heard a cryin' man is half a man <br>

With no sense of pride <br>

But if I have to cry to keep you, I don't mind weepin' <br>

If it'll keep you by my side <br>

<br>

Ain't too proud to beg, sweet darlin' <br>

Please don't leave me, girl (don't you go) <br>

Ain't too proud to plead, baby, baby <br>

Please don't leave me, girl (don't you go) <br>

<br>

If I have to sleep on your doorstep all night and day <br>

Just to keep you from walking away <br>

Let your friends laugh, even this I can stand <br>

'Cause I wanna keep you anyway I can <br>

<br>

Ain't too proud to beg, sweet darlin' <br>

Please don't leave me, girl (don't you go) <br>

Ain't too proud to plead, baby, baby <br>

Please don't leave me, girl (don't you go) <br>

<br>

Now I've got a love so deep in the pit of my heart <br>

And each day it grows more and more <br>

I'm not ashamed to come and plead to you baby <br>

If pleadin' keeps you from walkin' out that door <br>

<br>

Ain't too proud to beg, yes you know it (sweet darlin') <br>

Please don't leave me, girl (don't you go) <br>

Ain't too proud to plead, baby, baby <br>

Please don't leave me, girl (don't you go) <br>

Baby, baby, baby (sweet darlin') <br>

Please don't leave me, girl<br>

<br>
