Lucky Dube - Love Me (The Way I Am) lyrics

rate me

Who' s child am I gonna be tonight?

Who' s bed am I gonna sleep in tonight?

You told the other ones

I was your brother's child

You told the ones

I was your sister's child

Everytime they come to the house

I got to change my name

Everytime they come to the house

I got to change my identity

Whose child am I gonna be tonight?

As he walked away with tears in his eyes

I felt every pain that he felt

I cried every tear that he cried

Mama why?......

Chorus:

I wish you could love me the way I am

Whose dogs are gonna be my friends tonight?

Whose bin am I gonna eat out of tonight?

The welfare people when they come

To the house you told me to say nothing

Every time they wanna take me away

You say everything is alright

Whos bins am I gonna eat out of tonight?

As he walked away with tears in his eyes

I felt every pain that he felt

I cried every tear that he cried

Mama why?.......

Chorus:

I wish you could love me the way I am
