Sam Cooke - Take Me For What I Am lyrics

Don't try to make me, into what I ain't When you met me baby, I was no Saint How can time, be a lamb? Take me baby, for what I am A girl will serve, for just the right man And once she finds him, all look out Because right away, she'll try to change him That's when you will, hear him shout Girl, don't try to make me, into what I ain't When you met me baby, I was no Saint How can time, be a lamb? Take me baby, for what I am Don't try to make me baby, into what I ain't Because when you met me baby, you know I was no Saint How in the world can a tiger, honey, be a lamb You gotta take me baby, just for what I am You used to smile, when you caught me watching Other girls, on the avenue And now that got your hooks into me You only want me to look at you Girl, don't try to make me, into what I ain't When you met me baby, I was no Saint How can in the world can a tiger, be a lamb? Take me baby, for what I am
