If it matter to you, it still matters to me
You'll find me by the bayou
Thinking wicked thoughts of you
I just want to be strong, you just gotta be wrong
I can't clarify you, you can't verify me
I can't make it by stealth
You won't even share the wealth so
You just gotta be you
And I just gotta be me
And I will tell that to the world
You just gotta be

With a gratified mind, I'll be on the highway
Just as soon as I can
Where there's a will there's a way so until then
I just want to be me, and you just gotta be
