I Am What I Am

Don't say things that you can't prove.
You'll look like you aint been to school.
Don't say what you hear other people say, oh no!
Let them talk what they like about me.
The more they talk, the more I succeed.
They don't know that I am what I am, oh yes!

I am free to come and go,
I am free, like the birds in the trees.
I am free to come and go,
I am free, like the birds in the trees.

/instrumental solo/

Let's talk about pride so with me [???]
They'll always bite your hand if you give them the feed,
They don't know that I am what I am, oh yes!
You'll have to take and don't love to give.
You must learn to live and let live.
I am still what I am really am.

I am free to come and go,
I am free, like the birds in the tree.
I am free to come and go,...

Old Rocking Chair

You can roam and roam and roam and roam
Till the end of time, yeah!
But something I want you to know:
This house is yours and mine.
So when you get a tired of running around,
And you want to come back home,
Please, remember, oh yeah!
The house is here,
Ooooh, I'll be in my old rockin' chair.

You said you love me, yeah,
Love me alone!
And all I want, you goin' with another one, ooohh!
So, if he ever cut you down,
and you want to come back home,
Please, remember, oh yeah!
The house is here,
Ooooh, I'll be in my old rockin' chair.

[instrumental break]

You said you love me, yeah,
Love me alone! Ooohh!
And all I want, you goin' with another one, yeah!
So, if he ever let you down,
and you want to come back home,
Please, remember, oh yeah!
The house is here,
Ooooh, I'll be in my old rockin' chair.

Take Your Time

Give me time to explain
The way I feel about you.
Don't try to play too smart:
You'll end up breaking in two.
Why don't you take your time?
You better take your time.

The world wasn't made within a day,
So the Bible say.
An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth,
Some day you'll get your pay.
Why don't you take your time?
You better take your time.

You got what you want
And you think that's all.
Let me tell you something, brother:
Some day you've got to fall.
Don't play hypocrite with me, my friend,
Coz I know a long
The bull is going to overthrow
The fire will burn your hand.
Why don't you take your time?
You better take your time.

Don't try too hard, too hard,
And you think that's all,
Let me tell you something, brother:
Some day you're going to fall.
Don't play hypocrite with me, my friend,
Coz I know a long
The bull is going to overthrow
The fire will burn your hand.
Why don't you take your time?
You better take your time.
Why don't you take your time?
You better take your time.
Why don't you take your time?...
