Mavis Staples - I Like The Things About Me lyrics

I looked in the mirror, and what did I see?

An brand new image of the same old me

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

There was a time 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

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 my young, how you may feel

I done reached the ṗoint 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 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 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
