Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I was a innocent child till you taught me your style

But the love that you made, it drove me stone wild

But don't scandalize me, save me

Whatever I am, you made me

Whatever I've done, you made me

[Verse 2]

You know I'm tryin' to hang on because my love is so strong

But you got me doin' things that I never have done

Don't criticize me, save me

Whatever I am, you made me

Whatever I've done, you made me

[Verse 3]

Well, I tried to be good as anybody could be

But you kept on talkin' that talk to me

And as soon as I fell, then you put me down

And now you got 'em talkin' 'bout me all over this town

[Verse 4]

You know I can't eat a bite and I can't sleep at night

You got me doin' things that I you know ain't right

But don't scandalize me, save me

Whatever I am, you made me

Whatever I've done, you made me

Whatever I am, you made me

Whatever I've done, you made me

Whatever I am, you made me

Whatever I've done, you made me
