The Fantastics - (Love Me) Love The Life I Lead lyrics
rate meI am not a wise man<br />
Neither am I a fool<br />
I'm what I am<br />
The way the good Lord made me<br />
<br />
Though I want you more<br />
Than you may ever understand<br />
I can't wear a face<br />
That will betray me<br />
<br />
So if you're gonna love me<br />
Love the life I lead<br />
Need the things I need<br />
Don't try to change me<br />
(Change me, change me)<br />
<br />
If you're gonna take me<br />
Take me for what I am<br />
I can't be another man<br />
I can't be free<br />
<br />
From the life I lead<br />
(From the life I lead)<br />
From the life I lead<br />
(From the life I lead)<br />
<br />
Money in my pockets<br />
Never seems to last too long<br />
I've gambled on the way<br />
And drowned my sorrows<br />
<br />
And though God knows<br />
I can't pretend<br />
It's better on my own<br />
I can't promise you a new tomorrow<br />
<br />
So if you're gonna love me<br />
Love the life I lead<br />
Need the things I need<br />
Don't try to change me<br />
(Change me, change me)<br />
<br />
If you're gonna take me<br />
Take me for what I am<br />
I can't be another man<br />
And I can't be free<br />
<br />
From the life I lead<br />
(From the life I lead)<br />
From the life I lead<br />
(From the life I lead)<br />
<br />
You know<br />
I really think we could make it<br />
But there's just one thing, one thing<br />
That you've got to understand<br />
<br />
Oh, oh, oh, oh<br />
If you're gonna love me<br />
Love the life I lead<br />
Need the things I need<br />
Don't try to change me<br />
(Change me, change me)<br />
<br />
Oh, if you're gonna take me<br />
Take me for what I am<br />
I can't be another man<br />
And I can't be free<br />
<br />
From the life I lead<br />
(From the life I lead)<br />
From the life I lead<br />
(From the life I lead)<br />
<br />
Oh, if you're gonna love me<br />
Love the life I lead<br />
Need the things I need<br />
Don't try to change me<br />
(Change me, change me)<br />
<br />
If you're gonna take me<br />
Take me for what I am...
