Lyrics The Staple Singers – I Got To Be Myself
Text:
I got to be myself, I can’t be nobody else
I got to be myself, I can’t be nobody else
Can’t change my color
Can’t change my skin
It’s been like that since my time began
I got to be myself, I can’t be nobody else
I got to be myself, I can’t be nobody else
(I’m on up
?) with my life
Let me do, what I think is right
‘Cause I got to be myself, lord
I can’t be nobody else
I got to be myself, I can’t be nobody else
I got to be myself, I can’t be nobody else
…Can’t be nobody else
I got to be myself, I can’t be nobody else
Say it…
I got to be myself, I can’t be nobody else
I got to be myself, I can’t be nobody else
Let me be myself, ya’ll…
I got to be myself, let me be myself
I got to be myself, let me be myself
I got to be myself, let me be myself (Just want to be myself)
I got to be myself, let me be myself (Let me live and die)
I got to be myself, let me be myself (Let me do what I think is right)
I got to be myself, let me be myself (Oh, I wanna be myself)
