(Travis Tritt/Walt Aldridge/Casey Beathard)

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 Potter's Piece Of Clay
But You Really Wouldn't Want Me That Way

It's A Crazy World We Live In And It Keeps On Getting 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
But 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

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
