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?
Not 'cause I'm, I'm a gentle man
Lookin' for a gentle woman
So-called ladies, they keep breakin' my heart
Showed me a house, showed me a home
Showed 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 thinking now
And the thoughts had left my head
I get through speaking, 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?
