[Intro]
Put your loving hand out, baby
'Cause I'm beggin'

[Chorus]
I'm beggin', beggin' you
So, put your loving hand out, baby
I'm beggin', beggin' you
So, put your loving hand out, darling

[Verse 1]
Riding 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

[Verse 2]
So, any time I need, you let me go
Yeah, any time I feed, you get me know
Any time I see, you let me know
But I plan and see, just let me grow
I'm on my knees while I'm beggin'
'Cause I don't want to lose you
Hey yeah, ra-ta-ta-ta!

[Chorus]
'Cause I'm beggin', beggin' you
And put your loving hand out, baby
I'm beggin', beggin' you
And put your loving hand out, darling
[Verse 3]
I need you to undеrstand
Tried so hard to be your friend
Thе kind of friend you want in the end
Only then can I begin to live again

[Verse 4]
An empty shell
I used to be
The shadow of my life was hanging over me
A broken one
That I don't know
Won't even stand the devil's chance to win my soul

[Verse 5]
What we doing? What we chasing?
Why the bottom? Why the basement?
Why we got good things, don't embrace it?
Why the feel for the need to replace me?
You're the wrong way track from the good
I want to paint a picture telling where we could be at
Like a heart ain't attached the way it should
You don't give it away, you had, and you took it back
But I keep walking on
Keep opening doors
Keep hoping for
That the call is yours
Keep calls on hold
'Cause I don't wanna live in a broken home
Girl, I'm begging
[Chorus]
Mmm, ye-e-e-ah
I'm beggin', beggin' you
So, put your loving hand out, baby
I'm beggin', beggin' you
So, put your loving hand out, darling

[Bridge]
I'm fighting hard
To hold my own
Just can't make it all alone
I'm holding on
I can't fall back
I'm just a calm 'bout to fade to back

[Chorus]
I'm beggin', beggin' you
Put your loving hand out, baby
I'm beggin', beggin' you
So, put your loving hand out, darling
I'm beggin', beggin' you
So, put your loving hand out, baby
I'm beggin', beggin' you
So, put your loving hand out, darling

[Outro]
I'm beggin', beggin' you
So, put your loving hand out, baby
I'm beggin', beggin' you
So, put your loving hand out
