Begging For Favors Lyrics - Singles - Kim Carnes

(Kim Carnes/Dave Ellingson) 

You can ride in the front 

Ride in the back 

Or someplace in between 

You can say what you mean 

But not mean what you say 

And wonder if it's all the same 

Funny how when your life turns green 

And he's right there with you 

Then it all turns around 

When it all comes down 

Is somebody lying to you 

She won't be begging for favors 

Even with a broken heart 

Begging for favors 

Even if she's falling apart 

Begging for favors 

Begging for favors 

Is she out of her head 

Out of emotion 

Cause he's not out of her mind 

Headphones blaring solitary radio 

She's high on the wire 

Down with desire 

But she's not out of design 

She's just learning how things work 

Learning how things work 

Learning how things work 

She won't be begging for favors 

Even with a broken heart 

Begging for favors 

Even if she's falling apart 

She won't be begging for favors 

She won't be hanging around 

Begging for favors 

She won't be begging for favors 

You can ride in the front 

Ride in the back 

Or someplace in between 

You can say what you mean 

But not mean what you say 

And wonder if it's all the same 

She won't be begging for favors 

Even with a broken heart 

Begging for favors 

Even if she's falling apart 

She won't be begging for favors 

Even if she's hanging around 

She won't be begging for favors 

She won't be begging for favors 

She won't be begging for favors
