Billy Preston
Ain’t Too Proud to Beg
[Verse 1]
I know you want to leave me
I refuse to let you go
If I have to beg, plead for your sympathy
I don't mind because you mean that much to me

[Chorus]
Ain't too proud to beg, sweet darlin'
Please don't leave me, don't you go
Ain't too proud to plead, baby, baby
Please don't leave me, don't you go

[Verse 2]
Well, I heard a quiet man is half a man
With no sense of pride
If I have to cry to keep you, I don't mind weeping
If weeping gonna keep you by my side

[Chorus]
Ain't too proud to beg, sweet darlin'
Please don't leave me, don't you go
Ain't too proud to plead, baby, baby
Please don't leave me, don't you go

[Verse 3]
If I have to sleep on your door step all night and day
Just to keep you from walking away
Let my friends laugh, then this I can stand
Because I wanna keep you any way I can
[Chorus]
Ain't too proud to beg, sweet darlin'
Please don't leave me, don't you go
Ain't too proud to plead, baby, baby
Please don't leave me, don't you go

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
Ain't too proud to beg, sweet darlin'
Please don't leave me, don't you go
Ain't too proud to plead, baby, baby
Please don't leave me, don't you go

[Verse 4]
I've got a love so deep in the pit of my heart
Every day it grows more and more
I'm not ashamed to come and plead with you, baby
If pleading keeps you from walking out the door

[Chorus]
Ain't too proud to beg, sweet darlin'
Please don't leave me, don't you go
Ain't too proud to plead, baby, baby
Please don't leave me, don't you go
Ain't too proud to beg, sweet darlin'
Please don't leave me, don't you go
Ain't too proud to plead, baby, baby
Please don't leave me, don't you go

[Outro]
Sweet darlin', don't you go
Ain't too proud to beg, sweet darlin'
Ain't too proud
Ain't too proud, I get down on my knees
Baby, please, don't you go
Ain't too proud, ain't too proud to beg
You don't leave, don't you go
Ain't too proud to beg, sweet darlin'
Please don't leave me, don't you go
Ain't too proud to beg, sweet darlin'
Yeah, don't you go!
