Take Me As I Am - George Jones

Why must you always try to make me over?

Take me as I am or let me go

White lilies never grow on stalks of clover

Take me as I am or let me go

You’re trying to reshape me in a mold love

In the image of someone you used to know

But I won’t be a standing for an old love

Take me as I am or let me go

You’ve tried to change me ever since you met me

Take me as I am or let me go

If you can’t overlook my faults, forget me

Take me as I am or let me go

Oh, you’re trying to reshape me in a mold love

In the image of someone you used to know

But I won’t be a standing for an old love

Take me as I am or let me go
