Ridin high, when I was ____________________(1)
Played it ____________________(2) and fast, cause I had everything
_______________(3) away, won me then
But easy ________________(4) and easy __________________(5)
And it would end.

I wanna paint in a __________________(13) telling where we could be at
Like a heart in the best way should
You cant give it away, you had it, so you took it back

Beggin, beggin you
Put your loving hand out, baby
Beggin, beggin you
Put your loving hand out darlin
Beggin, beggin you
Put your loving hand out, baby
