Show Me A Little Shame
Ben Harper
Burn To Shine (1999)

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 cos' I'm, I'm a gentleman
Before a gentlewomen, so called ladies
They 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 to crying and I
(?)
I get through thinking now
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 ever have mind at all
And I 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?
