Got To Be My Own Way Lyrics

I got to be my own way.
I got to be my own way.

Whatever comes between us,
darling let me make myself clear:
I'll do my best to meet your needs
if you understand you can't change me.

Take me, leave me, just say.
Take me, leave me, just say.
I got to be my own way.
I got to be my own way.

-Aw baby you know,
like all I'm sayin' is that you know like,
change comes from within.
And even though we stay together now we still have to be,
uh, our own selves.
So, you know.
I've got to be my own way
and I needto know, like, is that cool?

-Yeah baby, but you've got to respect my needs.

Darling if you are angry.
If you're disappointed in me,
please don't lay a guilt trip on me my dear.
Talk to me plainly,
let me knowwhatto expect.
I'll do the same for you and be aware of how I act.
If we can't conquerthis,
we surely won't getto that place that is golden and free,
that place where you love to love me.

Take me, leave me, just say.
Take me, leave me, just say.
I got to be my own way.
I got to be my own way.
