It's the way of mine to say just what I'm thinking
And to do the things I really want to do
And you want to change the part of me I'm proud of
So I can't be myself when I'm with you
Oh, you never liked the clothes I wear on Sunday
Oh, you never liked the clothes I wear on Sunday

It's because I don't believe the way you do
But I believe the Lord knows I'm unhappy
Cause I can't be myself when I'm with you
I can't be myself
And be
What pleases you
And down deep inside
I don't believe
That you'd want me to
And it's not my way
To take so long
Deciding
That I can't be myself
When I'm with you
I can't be myself
And be what pleases you
And down deep inside
I don't believe
That you'd want me to
And it's not my style
To take so long
Deciding
That I can't be myself
When I'm with you
Oh, I can't be myself
When I'm with you
