(Sung to the tune of “Ain’t Too Proud to Beg” by the Temptations)
I know you wanna leave us
But we do not want to let you go
If we have to beg and plead for your candidacy
we don’t mind ‘cause you mean that much to us
Ain’t too proud to beg, sweet darlin’
Please don’t leave us now, don’t you go
Ain’t to proud to plead, baby, baby
Please don’t leave us, now, don’t you go
Now we heard a cryin’ RAC is half a RAC
With no sense of pride
But if we have to cry to get you, we don’t mind weepin’
If it’ll get you by our side
Ain’t too proud to beg, sweet darlin’
Please don’t leave us, now, don’t you go
Ain’t to proud to plead, baby, baby
Please don’t leave us, now, don’t you go
If we have to sleep on your doorstep all night and day
Just to keep you from walkin’ away
Let your friends laugh, even this we can stand
‘Cause we want to get you any way we can
Ain’t too proud to beg, sweet darlin’
Please don’t leave us, now, don’t you go
Ain’t to proud to plead, baby, baby
Please don’t leave us, now, don’t you go
Now we’ve got a love so deep in the pit of our heart
And each day it grows more and more
I’m not ashamed to come and plead to you, baby
If pleadin’ keeps you from walkin’ out of that door
Ain’t too proud to beg, sweet darlin’
Please don’t walk away from us, now, don’t you go
Ain’t to proud to plead, baby, baby
Please don’t leave us, now, don’t you go
Baby, baby, baby, (ooh, sweet darlin’)
Oh, no
Don’t walk away from us , no, no
If crying keeps you near
We don’t mind crying
Don’t leave us now, oh, no
Oh, baby
Don’t walk away from us now, no
Don’t just leave us here alone.
