Lyrics Elvis Presley

Elvis Presley

Love Me, Love the Life I Lead

I am not a wise man neither am I a fool

But what I am the way the good Lord made me

Though I need you more than you may ever understand

I can't wear a face that will betray me

Oh, If you're gonna love me, love the life I lead

Need the things I need, don't try to change me

If you're gonna take me, take me for what I am

I can't be another man, I can't be free

'Cos The life I lead is the life I lead

Money in my pocket never seems to last too long

I've gambled on the way and drowned my sorrows

Though God knows I can't pretend it's better on my own

I can't promise you a new tomorrow

Oh, If you're gonna love me, love the life I lead

Need the things I need, don't try to change me

If you're gonna take me, take me for what I am

I can't be another man, I can't be free

'Cos The life I lead is the life I lead
