Put your loving hand out, baby
I'm beggin'

(Beggin') beggin' you
Put your loving hand out, baby
(Beggin') beggin' 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, didn't want me then
But easy come and easy go
And it would end

(Beggin') beggin' you
Won't you give your hand out, baby
(Beggin') beggin'
Put your loving hand out, baby

I need you to understand
That I tried so hard
To be your man
The kind of man you want in the end
Only then can I begin to live again
(Beggin') beggin' you
Put your loving hand out, baby
(Beggin') I'm beggin' you
Put your loving hand out, baby

An empty shell
Used to be
Shadow of my life
Is hanging over me
A brokеn man without a goal
Won't even stand the dеvil's chance
To win my soul

I'm fighting hard
To hold my own
No, I just can't make it
All alone
I'm holdin' on
I can't fall back
Now that big brass ring
Is a shade of black

(Beggin') I'm beggin' you
Put your loving hand out, baby
(Beggin') I'm beggin' you
Put your loving hand out, baby...
