You, you've been lookin' at me just a little too long Now I can never look the same Blindness and kindness, there's no difference in the two When I can no longer see the good in you So won't you show me a little shame Won't you show me a little shame Now 'cause I'm, I'm a gentleman, lookin' for a gentlewomen So called ladies they keep breakin' my heart Show me a house, show me a home Show me how it could all fall apart Now, won't you show me a little shame Won't you show me a little shame Won't you show me a little shame 'Cause now I wake up in the morning
More tired than before I slept I get through cryin' And I'm sadder than before I wept I get through thinkin' And the thoughts have left my head I get through speakin' And I can't remember not a word that I said You change your mind so many times I wonder if you have a mind at all And I'd rather be by myself Than to have your lonesome company come to call Now, won't you show me a little shame Won't you show me a little shame Won't you show me a little shame Won't you show me a little shame
