Beres Hammond - I Could Beat Myself Lyrics
oooh ahh, I'm hurting, badoooh ahh I'm hurting bad!I did not see what I was supposed to seetaking it easy when a friend told me I was indanger, so much danger.Underestimating my woman, not taking herout, working too hard and now she's gone offwith a stranger, someone I don't even know.I should have taken her out, every once and awhile, taken her to dinner on the finer side, shownher a life that was all worth while, now I guese I gottawalk an extra mile! I could beat myself! Ahh yeah.Now I'm gonna feel funny out there in the crowdwhen my friends all ask me, where is your woman?long time I don't see. Now I've got to think fast gottause my head, give a good story and make sure theybuy my version of the situation.All the while I wouldn't lie I'm gonna do this oncesee my reputation sinking in the distance, if theyknew the truth that really existed...then my little sanitywould be wasted! I could beat myself ahh yes..I couldbeat myself!!! Ohh lord lord.oooh ooh I'm hurting, hurting insideoooh ooh I'm hurtingNow I really want to hear a little news now andthen, this is not what I expect to hear from myfriend I'm dissapointed. He should realize that itsgonna destroy my position (remember I'm a namebrand) now I've gotta see....I should have held her tightevery once and a while, gotten it together on the finer styleshown her a life that was all worth while, now it seems I gottawalk an extra mile....I could beat myself..ahh yes, I could beat myselfooh lord...ooh I'm hurting...ooooh I'm hurting,hurting insideI don't know what I wanna tell youbut I wanna tell you something real, real good yessometing to make youwanna shiver....
