Louis Jordan - You Be You but Let Me Be Me lyrics

You be you and do whatever you want to You be you but let me be me Run your life and live however you want to Run your life and leave mine to me You can pull no rabbits out of nobody's hat Trying to change my habits will take a lot more magic than that So let me be, and be yourself if you want me You be you but let me be me Or baby, there won't be no you and me You can't rule no nation, or tell folks what to do I ain't no congregation, nobody likes your preaching but you So take it slow and calm yourself if you want me You be you but let me be me Or baby, there won't be no you and me
