Just the Way I Am Songtext
von Michael Ray

Might slow it on down and wave at a passer-by
Hug your neck, say I love you, instead of saying goodbye
Ain′t looking for more, more than love from a fight
I got too much pride

Hey, I'm the kind of guy
That likes the simple life
The only suit and tie I own
Is for when heaven calls somebody home

I′m a cross around my neck
I'm a hard to keep my temper in check
I'm a night you might regret
I′m that time that you′ll never forget
I'm that, "Hey, can I get a cigarette?"
How much you wanna bet I′ma get her
She's just playing hard to get, man
Amen, raise a hand on a Sunday
That′s just the way I am
Hey man, give a damn from the country
That's just the way I am


Yeah, might cuss a little more than I probably should
I′m a poor man's Hemingway back in the woods
I take a little while to get to know
But once you know me then you know

That I'm the kind of guy, hey
That′s always down to ride or drive
I′ll be a good old boy to the bone
'Til the good Lord calls me home

I′m a cross around my neck
I'm a hard to keep my temper in check
I′m a night you might regret
I'm that time that you′ll never forget
I'm that, "Hey, can I get a cigarette?"
How much you wanna bet I'ma get her
She′s just playing hard to get, man
Amen, raise a hand on a Sunday
That′s just the way I am
Hey man, give a damn from the country
That's just the way I am


I′m the salt on my collar
Working hard on a dollar
Friday night hoot and holler
Kind of guy from out yonder
I'm a beer off a backroad
Fishing with a cane pole
Smoking on some on some hand-rolled, yeah

I′m a cross around my neck

I'm a cross around my neck
I′m a hard to keep my temper in check
I'm a night you might regret
I'm that time that you′ll never forget
I′m that, "Hey, can I get a cigarette?"
How much you wanna bet I'ma get her
She′s just playing hard to get, man
Amen, raise a hand on a Sunday
That's just the way I am
Hey man, give a damn from the country
That′s just the way I am
