Lyrics

Pretty little baby
 How come you never come around?
 Pretty little baby
 How come you never come around?
 I sent you all them pretty flowers
 Now you're nowhere to be found
 I call you up at midnight sometimes I must admit
 And 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
 If every night I'm left here all alone?
 It's a gun that I need
 Shame Shame Shame Shame Shame
 I ain't ashamed of nothing
 Shame Shame Shame Shame Shame
 I don't know what you're 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 every day
 And have some old dude banging on her like a gypsy on a tambourine
 That's not what we're talking about
 That's not what we're talking about
 That's not what we're talking about
 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 and my schemes, my...
 Shame Shame Shame Shame Shame
 You 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
 And I pictured you in diamonds, satins and pearls
 Come on back to daddy
 Daddy miss his little 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
 Do you know what if feels like
 To wake up in the morning
 Have every joint in your body aching, God damn it?
 Do you know what it feels like
 To have to get up in the middle of the night and 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?
 God damn it you little bitch, I'd kill you if I didn't love you so much
 Shame Shame Shame Shame Shame
 Shut up
 Forgive me
 My unfocused words
 I was flying blind
 I lost my mind (Shame Shame Shame)
 If you could find it in your heart, if you got one
 To forgive me
 I'd be ever so grateful (Shame Shame Shame)
 Will you stop that please (Shame Shame Shame)
 Will 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
