The Way I Am

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
