Lyrics:

(Song by Merle Haggard)

Its a way of mine to say just what Im thinking
And to do the things, I really want to do
And you want to change the part of me Im proud of
So, I cant be myself when Im with you

I have never liked the clothes I wear on Sunday
Just because I dont believe the way you do
But I believe the Lord knows Im unhappy
Cos I cant be myself when Im with you

I cant be myself and be what pleases you
And down deep inside I dont believe youd want me to
And its not my style to take so long deciding
That I cant be myself when Im with you

I cant be myself when Im with you
I cant be myself and be what pleases you
And down deep inside I dont believe youd want me to
And its not my style to take so long deciding
That I cant be myself when Im with you
I cant be myself when Im with you
