Lyrics

I was an innocent child Till you taught me your style You got me doin' things That I'd never have done Don't criticize me, save me 'Cause whatever I am you made me Whatever I got you gave me I'm tryin' to hang on Because my love is so strong You got me doin' things That you know I'd never have done I say don't criticize me, save me 'Cause whatever I am you made me Whatever I got you gave me Well, I'm tryin' to be good Like a woman can be But you kept on talking that talk to me And as soon as I fell you put me down And now you got 'em talking 'bout me All over this town You know I can't, can't eat a bite And I can't sleep at night 'Cause you got me doin' things That you know ain't right Don't criticize me, save me Whatever I am you made me Whatever I got you gave me Whatever I am you made me Whatever I got you gave me You know, you did it Don't patronize me Don't analyze me Don't criticize me Just save me Save me I've just... save me Me, save me Don't criticize me You know you did it Nobody but you did it, you did it You did it, you did it, you did it You did it and you know it...
