BEN HARPER LYRICS - Show Me A Little Shame

"Show Me A Little Shame"



You, you've been looking 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



Now 'cause I'm, I'm a gentleman, lookin' for a gentlewomen, so-called ladies keep breakin my heart

Show me a house, show me a home, show me how it could all fall apart



So 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 crying and I'm sadder then before I wept

I get through thinking and the thoughts have 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



So won't you show me a little shame

Won't you show me a little shame

Won't you show me a little shame
