Just Be Yourself

I don't want to be an imitating man
I just want to be myself and do my own thing
Some are up, try so hard, do like others do

What's good for others sometimes may not be so good for you
Stick to your own thing, don't worry about anybody, yeah, no
Just do your thing, whatever it is
And be yourself

That's all you got to do
Just be yourself
Oh, yeah
Come on, y'all
Be yourself tonight
Lord, come on
Be yourself
Be yourself, Lord

Alright
Just be yourself now
All you gotta do, oh, my boy
Be yourself, Lord

Look at here, let me tell you something
I don't wanna be a phony, I'm always for real
I'm not ashamed to do what I like, no matter what it is
Someone's got too much pride to get on down with it
Forget about your pride, who's proud of sad?
Get down nitty-gritty

Ow!
Come on, baby, everybody
Everybody, come on
And be yourself tonight
Oh, be yourself, baby
Be yourself

I don't care what you do
As long as you're being yourself
So, baby, just be myself, y'all
That's all I wanna do, I don't wanna be anybody
