Lyrics

Shame
Pretty little baby
'Come you never come around?
Pretty little baby
How come you never come around?
I send you all them pretty flowers
Now you're nowhere to be found
'Call you up at midnight sometimes, I must admit
When I find you're not at home
My head heats up like a furnace
My heart grows colder than a stone
So what's the good of all this money I got, girl?
If every night, i'm left here all alone?
It's a gun that I need

Shame, shame, shame, shame, shame
I ain't shame of nothing
Shame, shame, shame, shame, shame
I don't know what you talking about

All right, let's talk a little business
You know what i'm saying?
A man of my experience of life
Don't expect a beautiful young woman like yourself
To come on over here everyday
Have some old dude bangin' on her
Like a gypsy on a tambourine
That's not what i'm talkin' 'bout
That's not what i'm talkin' 'bout
That's not what i'm talkin' 'bout
But I will say this
I've been all over the world
I've seen some wonderful things
I haven't been well lately
I have no one to share my plans
My dreams, my hopes, my schemes, my…

Shame, shame, shame, shame, shame
'Could be right
I've sunk pretty low this time
Shame, shame, shame, shame, shame
These are truly desperate times

Saw your little sandals, baby
Out behind the wishing well
Down here in the cool depths of the quarter
Where the rich folk dwell
They picture you in diamonds
Satins and pearls
Come on back to daddy!
Daddy miss his baby girl
Now, my father, he was an angry man
You cross him; he made you pay
I, myself, am no longer an angry man
Don't make me beg you, …don't make me beg

You know what it feels like
Wake up in the mornin'?
Have every joint in your body aching, goddamit
You know what it feels like
Have to get up in the middle of the night?
Sit down, to take a piss?
You do know? so you say
I have my doubts missy
Do you know what it feels like
To have to beg a little bum like you for love?
Goddamn you, you little bitch!
I'd kill you, if I didn't love you so much!

Shame, shame, shame, shame…
Shut up!
Oh, forgive me
…My unfocused words
I was flyin' blind, i, I lost my mind
If ya find it in your heart, if you got one
To forgive me. be ever so grateful
Shame, shame, shame
Would you stop that please?
Shame, shame, shame
Would you stop that please?
I'm trying to talk to someone
Shame
Thank you

You know, I have a lexus now
I don't get out much
You know what i'm saying
Come on home
