You Really Wouldn't Want Me That Way Lyrics - Travis Tritt

I know I'm far from perfect, 

Too set in my ways for my own good. 

And there's other things about me 

You think you'd like to change, If you just could. 

I could let you shape me, 

Mold me like a potters piece of clay. 

But you really wouldn't want me that way. 

It's a crazy world we live in, 

And it keeps on gettin' tougher all the time. 

You say you wish I wouldn't let life's troubles, 

Weigh so heavy on my mind. 

When things are wrong I guess that I could smile, 

Pretending everything's okay. 

Oh, you really wouldn't want me that way.

I'm just the man I've always been, 

I don't know how to be nobody else. 

And a man can only change so much, 

Till he becomes a shadow of himself. 

I never could be happy, 

If I were just your puppet on a string, yes I could change. 

But you really wouldn't want me that way. 

You really wouldn't want me that way. 

--- Instrumental --- 

Now don't misunderstand me, 

I want to be a man that makes you proud. 

I ain't ashamed to show how much I love you, 

Every way that I know how. 

I can make concessions, 

But don't ask me to bend until I break. 

'Cause you really wouldn't want me that way.

Don't ask me tomorrow to 

Become someone I wasn't yesterday. 

'Cause you really wouldn't want me that way. 

Ah, you really wouldn't want me... that way...
