James Brown
Don’t Make Me Over
Hey, I met you just the other day
And everything was alright
But now that I put my confidence in you
Now, now, now you wanna change
But hey, look, it just can't be that way
So listen
Don't make me over
Now that I'll do anything for you
Don't make me over (Burn, sister, burn)
Now that you know how I adore you
Don't pick on the things I say (Things I say)
The things I do (Things I do)
Love me with all my fault
The way that I love you
I'm begging, I'm begging, I'm begging you
Don't make me over (Burn, sister, burn)
Now that I can't make it without you
Don't make me over
'Cause I wouldn't change one thing about you
Just take me inside your arms (In your arms)
And hold me tight (Hold me tight)
And always be by my side, if I am wrong or right
I'm begging, I'm begging you
Don't make me over (Burn, sister, burn)
Don't make me over
Now that you've got me at your command
Accept me for what I am
Accept me for what I am
I want you to accept me for the things that I do
Accept me for what I am (Don't make me over)
Don't pick the things I say (Don't make me over)
I'm begging, I'm begging, I'm begging you
