Music Monday #14 – Beggin’

Get the song here:

On today’s Music Monday I’d like to bring to you a classic: Beggin’ by Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons. This song has lately been very successfully covered by the Norwegian band Madcon, but I personally like the old version a bit better. Kudos to Madcon, though, for introducing me to the song in the first place!

Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons – Beggin’

(Begging) begging
Put your loving hand out, baby
(Begging) begging you
Put your loving hand out, baby

Riding high when I was king
Played it hard and fast
Cause I had everything
You walked away, won me then
But easy come and easy go
And it would end

(Begging) I’m begging you
Won’t you give your hand out, baby
(Begging) begging
Put your loving hand out, baby

I need you to understand
That I tried so hard
To be your man
The kind of man you want in the end
Only then can I begin to live again

An empty shell
Used to be
Shadow of my life
Is hanging over me

Broken man without a throne
Wont even stand the devils dance
To win my soul

(Begging) begging you

Won’t you give your hand out, baby
(Begging) begging you
Put your loving hand out, baby

I’m fighting hard
To hold my own
No, I just cant make it
All alone

I’m holdin on
I can’t fall back
Now that big brass ring
Is a shade of black

(Begging) I’m begging you
Won’t you give your hand out, baby
(Begging) begging
Put your loving hand out, baby
