(Ron Wood, Rod Stewart, Ian McLagan, 1973)

Take me like you find me
Don't try to change me
You know better than that
Take me as you see me
Don't try to hide me
I ain't used to that
Shout it out loud
Put a bomb in a crowd
If I got something to say
There's nothing that can stop me
I can't let it lay

If I have to fall on my head
every night of the week
It's gonna be my fault,
no one else
If everything goes wrong
when I'm singing my song
It's gonna be my fault
and no one else
There ain't nothing you can do about it
I've sat and thought it over,
don't try to help me
I was just born this way,
yes I was born this way
I ain't gonna change for nobody,
never, never gonna change

So if everything goes wrong
and I drink all night
It's gonna be my fault
and no one else
People don't change just over night
It ain't natural, so don't
break it kindly,
don't hypnotize me
I just won't understand
Take me like you find me
Don't try to change me
You know better than that
oh don't you know better than that
oh don't you know better than that
Say I'm just a fool, that's alright
Never try to change me
or rearrange me, oh yeah
