take me like i am

i'm living on the other side of the track it's true

but like it or not i'm just as good as you

if i see you coming with your head held so high

don't you worry 'bout me speaking i'll pass you right on by

this world is full of money but i haven't got a dime

had a million heartaches

but i'm happy all the time

i can be like a tiger or as meek as a lamb

if you wanna get along with me you'll take me like i am

you can talk about your fancy friends and your millionaires

i may not have their money but i don't have their cares

you can live in a mansion set up on a golden throne

but all these things you have in life are gonna vanish when i'm gone

this world is full of money but i haven't got a dime

had a million heartaches

but i'm happy all the time

i can be like a tiger or as meek as a lamb

if you wanna get along with me you'll take me like i am

this world is full of money but i haven't got a dime

had a million heartaches

but i'm happy all the time

i can be like a tiger or as meek as a lamb

if you wanna get along with me you'll take me like i am
