I Could Beat Myself Songtext
Oooh ahh, I′m hurting, bad
Oooh ahh I'm hurting bad!
I did not see what I was supposed to see
Taking it easy when a friend told me I was in
Danger, so much danger
Underestimating my woman, not taking her
Out, working too hard and now she′s gone off
With a stranger, someone I don't even know
I should have taken her out, every once and a
While, taken her to dinner on the finer side, shown
Her a life that was all worth while, now I guess I gotta
Walk an extra mile! I could beat myself, ahh-yeah
Now I'm gonna feel funny out there in the crowd
When my friends all ask me, where is your woman?
Long time I don′t see, now I′ve got to think fast gotta
Use my head, give a good story and make sure they
Buy my version of the situation
All the while I wouldn't lie I′m gonna do this once
See my reputation sinking in the distance, if they
Knew the truth that really existed then my little sanity
Would be wasted! I could beat myself ahh yes, I could
Beat myself, ohh lord lord
Oooh ooh I'm hurting, hurting inside
Oooh ooh I′m hurting
Now I really want to hear a little news now and
Then, this is not what I expect to hear from my
Friend I'm disappointed He should realize that its
Gonna destroy my position (remember I′m a name
Brand) now I've gotta see I should have held her tight
Every once and a while, gotten it together on the finer style
Shown her a life that was all worth while, now it seems I gotta
Walk an extra mile I could beat myself ahh yes, I could beat myself
Ooh lord
Ooh I'm hurting
Ooooh I′m hurting, hurting inside
I don′t know what I wanna tell you
But I wanna tell you something real, real good yes
Someting to make you
Wanna shiver
Oooh ahh I'm hurting bad!
I did not see what I was supposed to see
Taking it easy when a friend told me I was in
Danger, so much danger
Underestimating my woman, not taking her
Out, working too hard and now she′s gone off
With a stranger, someone I don't even know
I should have taken her out, every once and a
While, taken her to dinner on the finer side, shown
Her a life that was all worth while, now I guess I gotta
Walk an extra mile! I could beat myself, ahh-yeah
Now I'm gonna feel funny out there in the crowd
When my friends all ask me, where is your woman?
Long time I don′t see, now I′ve got to think fast gotta
Use my head, give a good story and make sure they
Buy my version of the situation
All the while I wouldn't lie I′m gonna do this once
See my reputation sinking in the distance, if they
Knew the truth that really existed then my little sanity
Would be wasted! I could beat myself ahh yes, I could
Beat myself, ohh lord lord
Oooh ooh I'm hurting, hurting inside
Oooh ooh I′m hurting
Now I really want to hear a little news now and
Then, this is not what I expect to hear from my
Friend I'm disappointed He should realize that its

Ooooh I′m hurting, hurting inside
I don′t know what I wanna tell you
But I wanna tell you something real, real good yes
