Post by norm mcdaniel »

Have been looking for the words to the song Take me as I am or let me go. Does not seem to be on cowpie music or at least i havent found it yet. Does any one know where else I might find it?

Norm;
You can find the words to most country songs, (and a few others) at: Cowpie Bunkhouse!

Here are the lyrics to the Boudleaux Bryant song as performed by Bob Dylan:


<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica">quote:</font><HR><SMALL>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 are trying to reshape me in a mould, love,
In the image of someone you used to know.
But I won't be a stand-in for an old love,
Take me as I am or let me go.

You've tried to change me ever since you've met me.
Take me as I am or let me go.
If you can not overlook my faults, forget me,
Take me as I am or let me go.

You are trying to reshape me in a mould, love,
In the image of someone you used to know.
But I won't be a stand-in for an old love,
Take me as I am or let me go.</SMALL><HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

P.S. This probably belongs in the Music section of the forum.


Respectfully,
