Mavis Staples - I Like The Things About Me lyrics

rate me

I looked in the mirror and what did I see?

A brand new image of the same old me

Oh, but now I wonder why should I be surprised

I like the things about me

I like the things about me

I like the things about me

I like the things about me that I once despised

There was a time I wished my hair was fine

And I can remember when I wished my lips were thin

Oh, but now I wonder why should I be surprised

I like the things about me

I like the things about me

I like the things about me

I like the things about me that I once despised

I like the things about me

I like the things about me

I like the things about me

I like the things about me that I once despised

Makes no difference, now y’all, how you may feel

I done reached the point where I wanna be real

I’m tired of living, living in disguise

I like the things about me

I like the things about me

I like the things about me

I like the things about me that I once despised

I like the things about me

I like the things about me

I like the things about me

I like the things about me that I once despised

I like the things about me

I like the things about me

I like the things about me

I like the things about me that I once despised
