The Way I Am Song Lyrics
The Way I Am by Jackie Wilson Hmm, yeah
Well, don't try to change my beat, babe
I ain't your Sunday hat
I am what I am
And that's all there is to that
Now don't try to do me over
I ain't your piece of clay, no
I am what I am
And that's all I?
Oh, you gotta hold me
(Hold me, the way I am)
Kiss me
(Kiss me the way I am)
Love me, baby
(Love me, the way I am)
Or you ain't gonna love me at all
If you want me, baby
To be your lovin' man
You gotta hold me, kiss me, love me, yeah yeah
Take me the way I am
Hmm, yeah
Don't try to make me perfect
I ain't some kind of saint
I am what I am
And anything else I ain't
I'll never be an angel
But? my? is true, yeah
I am what I am
And I am in love with you
So you gotta hold me
(Hold me, the way I am)
Kiss me
(Kiss me the way I am)
Love me, baby
(Love me, the way I am)
Or you ain't gonna love me at all
If you want me, baby
To be your lovin' man
You gotta hold me, kiss me, love me, yeah yeah
Take me the way I am
You gotta hold me, kiss me, love me, yeah yeah
Take me the way I am
Hmm, yeah
