Timebox - Beggin - 1968

Letra:
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?
Ridin' high, when I was king
Played it hard and fast 'cause I had everything
You walked away, you want me then but easy come and easy go and it would end
Yeah, beggin', I'm beggin you, put your loving hand out baby?
Yeah, beggin', beggin you, put your loving hand out baby?
I need you to understand, never tried so hard to be your man
The kind of man you want in the end
Only then can I begin to live again
Empty shell of what used to be
Shadows of my life hangin' over me
Help this man, born and true
Won't even stand the devils chance to win my soul
Yeah, beggin', beggin you, put your loving hand out baby?
Yeah, beggin', I'm beggin you, put your loving hand out baby?
I tried so hard to hold my own though I just can't make it all alone
I'm holdin' on, I can't go back
Now that big brass ring is a shade of black

Beggin, I'm beggin you, put your loving hand out baby?
Yeah, beggin', beggin you, put your loving hand out baby?
Yeah, beggin', beggin you, why don't you put your loving hand out baby?
Yeah, beggin', beggin you, put your little hand out baby?
