Al Green - You Don't Know Me lyrics

You don't know me You don't understand You don't know me Just what kind of man If you love me Just take my hand I will help you to understand I may look the same Carry the same old name But a change has come To make me someone new I may look the part But it wasn't from my heart Quit livin' that lie When I met Jesus face to face You don't know me You don't understand You don't know me Just what kind of man If you love me Just take my hand I will help you to understand I may wear the same old clothes Lookin' like I haven't been told I can see Jesus Christ Right through this veil of tears You don't know my heart I'm talkin' about the sacred part It gets a little better And better and better All through the years You don't know me You don't understand You don't know me Just what kind of man If you love me Just take my hand I will help you to understand This thing started a long time ago I'm talkin' back in the Bible days People thinking they know you And living a live And dealing in contrary ways Don't let it stop your stuff You gotta be tough These things will soon come to pa** Keep your head in the sky You can get by And come out the victor at last You don't know me You don't understand You don't know me Just what kind of man If you love me Just take my hand I will help you to understand
