The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I know you wanna leave me,

But I refuse to let you go,

If I have to beg, plead for your sympathy,

I don't mind 'cause you mean that much to me.

Ain't too proud to beg and you know it,

Please don't leave me girl,

Don't you go,

Ain't too proud to plead, baby, baby,

Please don't leave me, girl,

Don't you go.

Now I've heard a cryin' man

Is half a man with no sense of pride,

But if I have to cry to keep you,

I don't mind weepin' if it'll keep you by my side.

Ain't too proud to beg and you know it,

Please don't leave me girl,

Don't you go,

Ain't too proud to plead, baby, baby,

Please don't leave me, girl,

Don't you go.

If I have to sleep on your doorstep all night and day

Just to keep you from walking away,

Let your friends laugh, even this I can stand,

'Cause I wanna keep you any way I can.

Ain't too proud to beg and you know it,

Please don't leave me girl,

Don't you go,

Ain't too proud to plead, baby, baby,

Please don't leave me, girl,

Don't you go.

Now I've got a love so deep in the pit of my heart,

And each day it grows more and more,

I'm not ashamed to call and plead to you, baby,

If pleading keeps you from walking out that door.

Ain't too proud to beg and you know it,

Please don't leave me girl,

Don't you go,

Ain't too proud to plead, baby, baby,

Please don't leave me, girl,

Don't you go.
