The Beggar in Me
Cool lilting rock groove a la Tom Petty's "Refugee" with a female vocal. Think Tom Petty and Tom Waits meet Tina Turner. Refusal to give up on something that is flawed, with some attitude. Acoustic and electric guitars, drums and hammond organ.

Lyrics
The Beggar In Me
Words: Margo Schepart, Roger and Ellen Bruno
Music: Roger and Ellen Bruno
We’ve been dancing it around for weeks now
When I think about it we know what’s going on
It doesn’t matter what I need
You’re never gonna hear me plead
No you’re not gonna see the beggar in me.
There’s darkness in the pull between us
Like a drug in my veins that feels so good and wrong
This little game you play
It's not enough to drive me away
But you're not gonna see the beggar in me
No you're not gonna see the beggar in me
Bridge
I don’t want to be left standing alone
Watching love end in a crash and burn
I know what an injured heart can do
Still I gotta see it through
But you're not gonna see the beggar in me
No you're not gonna see the beggar in me
We’ve been up and down all the peaks now
We're still singing our parts in that same old song
Your're standing on a stage with an ego to feed
It doesn't matter if I cry or bleed
You’re not gonna see the beggar in me, no
You’re not gonna see the beggar in me
The Beggar In Me
Words: Margo Schepart, Roger and Ellen Bruno
Music: Roger and Ellen Bruno
We’ve been dancing it around for weeks now
When I think about it we know what’s going on
It doesn’t matter what I need
You’re never gonna hear me plead
No you’re not gonna see the beggar in me.
There’s darkness in the pull between us
Like a drug in my veins that feels so good and wrong
This little game you play
It's not enough to drive me away
But you're not gonna see the beggar in me
No you're not gonna see the beggar in me
Bridge
I don’t want to be left standing alone
Watching love end in a crash and burn
I know what an injured heart can do
Still I gotta see it through
But you're not gonna see the beggar in me
No you're not gonna see the beggar in me
We’ve been up and down all the peaks now
We're still singing our parts in that same old song
Your're standing on a stage with an ego to feed
It doesn't matter if I cry or bleed
You’re not gonna see the beggar in me, no
You’re not gonna see the beggar in me
