I Like The Things About You - The Staple Singers

I looked in the mirror

What did I see?

A brand new image

Of the same old me

But now I wonder

Why should I be surprised

I like the things about me

I like the things about me

I like the things about me

I like the things about me that I once despised

There was a time

When I wished my hair was fine

And I can remember when

I wished my lips were thin

Oh, but now I wonder

Why should I be surprised

I like the things about me

I like the things about me

I like the things about me

I like the things about me that I once despised

Makes no difference now y’all

How you may feel

I’ve done reached the point

Where I wanna be real

I’m tired of living, living in disguise

I like the things about me

I like the things about me

I like the things about me

I like the things about me that I once despised

I used to just kind of walk around the floor

Walkin' slow and worrying about it

I don’t worry 'bout none of those things

'Cause everything’s alright

I know who I am

'Cause everbody’s somebody

Yeah, all you gotta do is look up

And go ahead on
