Don't try and understand me
You never could do that
Ah, and in the end you'd wind up being hurt
I'm a man with too many problems
That keep pounding on my brain

So if you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth
(If you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth)

I don't pretend to be a saint
My sins they are many
But there's no-one perfect in this universe
And though you think I'm weird
Don't try and change me dear

'Cause if you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth
(If you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth)

Hear a howling wind outside my door
There's restlessness within
Oh, I'm like a rain cloud that one day may burst
We both know I'll be leaving
And if one little tear you grieve

Ah, it's all right 'cause that's all I'm really worth
(It's all right 'cause that's all I'm really worth)

And if you think about me
In your lonesome hours
Ah, and on your lips there's a sweet word and not a curse
Ah, then I'll be coming back one day
When my wandering is over

Ah, if you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth
(If you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth)
Ah, if you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth
(If you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth).
