Ain't Too Proud to Beg/Quotes

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


I know you wanna leave me

If I have to beg and plead for your sympathy
I don't mind, doesn't mean that much to me
Ain't too proud to beg, sweet darling
Please don't leave me, don't you go

That will be my shield if they try and oust me."
