I don't want my heart to be broken
Cause it's the only one I've got
So darling please be careful
You know I care a lot
Darling please don't break my heart
I beg of you

I don't want no tears a-falling
You know I hate to cry
But that's what's bound to happen
If you say goodbye
Darling please don't say goodbye
I beg of you


Hold my hand and promise
That you'll always love me true
Make me know you'll love me
The same way I love you little girl

You got me at your mercy
Now that I'm in love with you
So please don't take advantage
Cause you know my love is true
Darling please please love me too
I beg of you

Hold my hand and promise
That you'll always love me true
Make me know you love me
The same way I love you little girl

You got me at your mercy
Now that I'm in love with you
So please don't take advantage
Cause you know my love is true
Darling please please love me too
I beg of you
Darling please please love me too
I beg of you
Darling please please love me too
I beg of you

Jackiej61too Nice photo choice & composition. Thanks. I'm curious as to who came up with the musical arrangement of the RCA release of "I Beg of You," since it sounds so different in the alternate takes with a guitar opening & repeating guitar high-note accents throughout. Since the Jordanaires are featured at the start of the commercial release, was it one of them who suggested the change? Was it Elvis? Can someone get this to one of the Jordanaires, Scotty Moore or anyone who would know?
