I Can't Believe Myself Lyrics - Hag - Merle Haggard

It's a way of mine to say just what I'm thinking 

And to do the things I really want to do 

And you want to change the part of me I'm proud of 

So I can't be myself when I'm with you 

Oh you never liked the clothes I wear on Sunday 

Just because I don't believe the way you do 

But I believe the Lord knows I'm unhappy cause I can't be myself when I'm with you 

I can't be myself and be what pleases you 

And down deep inside I don't believe that you want me to 

And it's not my way to take so long deciding that I can't be myself when I'm with you 

I can't be myself and be what pleases you... 

No I can't be myself when I'm with you
