I Could Beat Myself

I Could Beat Myself - Beres Hammond

Oooh ahh

I'm hurting bad

Oooh ahh

I'm hurting

I did not see what I was supposed to see

Taking it easy when a friend told me

I was in danger

So much danger

Underestimating my woman not taking her out

Working too hard and now she's gone off

With a stranger

Someone I don't even know

I should have taken her out every once in a

While

Dinner together under fancy style

Show her a life that's all worth while

Now I guess I gotta walk an extra mile

I could beat myself

Oooh yeah

Ooh yeah

I could beat myself

Oh yeah yeah

Gonna feel funny out there in the crowd

When my friends all ask me where is your woman

Long time I don't see

Now I've got to think fast gotta use my head

Give a good story and make sure

They buy my version

Of the situation

Although I don't wanna lie I'm gonna do this once

See my reputation sinking in the distance

If they knew the truth that really existed

Then my little sanity would be wasted

I could beat myself

Oooh yeah

Ooh yeah

I could beat myself

Oh lord lord

Ooh

I'm hurting bad

Ooh

I'm hurting

Now I'm gonna put the blame on the person that

Told me

They should realize it's gonna

Destroy my postition

Remember I'm a name brand

Though I really want hear a news now

And then

This is not what I expect hear from my friend

I'm dissappointed

But now I've got to sing

I should have held her tight every once in a

While

Take her to dinner under fancy style

Show her a life that was all worth while

Now I know I gotta walk an extra mile

I could beat myself

Oooh yeah not known

I could beat myself

Oh lord lord

I could beat myself

Oooh

I could beat myself

Oh na na na

Na na

Oohaaa

I could beat myself

Oohh oh yeah

Ha ha haaa

I could beat myself

Oh yes

Really really

I could beat myself

Oh yeah

I could beat myself now

I could beat myself

Over and over and over again

Only if I could turn back the hands of time

I hand

I could show you how a love can shine

Ha ha

I don't know what I wanna tell you life

But I wanna tell you something

Real really good now

Someting to make you

Wanna shiver
