Lyrics

🎵 Let’s sing along with the lyrics! 🎤
MmhPut your lovin’ hand out, babyI’m beggin’
Put your lovin’ hand out, baby(Beggin’) beggin’ youPut your lovin’ hand out, baby
Ridin’ high when I was kingPlayed it hard and fast ’cause I had everythingWalked away, wonderin’ thenBut easy come and easy go and it would end
I’m beggin’ youWon’t you give your hand out, baby?(Beggin’) beggin’ (ooh)Put your lovin’ hand out, baby
I need you to understandThat I tried so hard to be a manThe kind of man you’d want in the endOnly then can I begin to live again
An empty shell I used to beShadow of my life is hangin’ over meA broken man that I don’t knowDon’t even stand a devil’s chance to win my soul
beggin’ youWon’t you give your hand out, baby?(Beggin’) beggin’ youPut your lovin’ hand out, baby
I’m fightin’ hard to hold my ownNo, I just can’t make it all aloneI’m holdin’ on, I can’t fall backNow that big brass ring is a shade of black
I’m beggin’ youWon’t you give your hand out, baby?(Beggin’) beggin’ (ooh)Put your lovin’ hand out, baby(Beggin’) beggin’ youWon’t you give your hand out, baby?
