don’t try and understand me you never could do that
ah and in the end you’d wind up being hurt
i’m a man with too many problems that keep pounding on my brain
so if you want me you’ll take me for what i’m worth
if you want me you’ll take me for what i’m worth
i don’t pretend to be a saint my sins they are many
but there’s no one perfect in this universe
and though you think i’m weird don’t try and change me dear
’cause if you want me you’ll take me for what i’m worth
if you want me you’ll take me for what i’m worth
hear a howling wind outside my door there’s restlessness within
oh i’m like a rain cloud that one day may burst
we both know i’ll be leavin’ and if one little tear you grieve
ah it’s all right ’cause that’s all i’m really worth
it’s all right ’cause that’s all i’m really worth
and if you think about me in your lonesome hours
ah and on your lips there’s a sweet word and not a curse
ah then i’ll be comin’ back one day when my wandering is over
ah if you want me you’ll take me for what i’m worth
if you want me you’ll take me for what i’m worth
ah if you want me you’ll take me for what i’m worth
if you want me you’ll take me for what i’m worth
