Searchers, The - Take Me For What I'm Worth Lyrics






Don't try and understand me, you never could do that
Ah, and in the end you'd wind up being hurt
I'm a man with too many problems that keep pounding on my brain

So if you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth
(If you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth)

I don't pretend to be a saint, my sins they are many
But there's no one perfect in this universe
And though you think I'm weird, don't try and change me, dear

'Cause if you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth
(If you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth)

Hear a howling wind outside my door, there's restlessness within
Oh, I'm like a rain cloud that one day may burst
We both know I'll be leavin' and if one little tear you grieve

Ah, it's all right 'cause that's all I'm really worth
(It's all right 'cause that's all I'm really worth)

And if you think about me in your lonesome hours
Ah, and on your lips there's a sweet word and not a curse
Ah, then I'll be comin' back one day when my wandering is over

Ah, if you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth
(If you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth)

Ah, if you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth
(If you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth)

    Don't try and understand me, you never could do that
    Ah, and in the end you'd wind up being hurt
    I'm a man with too many problems that keep pounding on my brain
    So if you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth
    (if you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth)
    I don't pretend to be a saint, my sins they are many
    But there's no-one perfect in this universe
    And though you think I'm weird, don't try and change me dear
    Cause if you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth
    (if you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth)
    Hear a howling wind outside my door, there's restlessness within
    Oh, I'm like a raincloud that one day may burst
    We both know I'll be leavin' and if one little tear you grieve
    Ah, it's all right 'cause that's all I'm really worth
    (it's all right 'cause that's all I'm really worth)
    And if you think about me in your lonesome hours
    Ah, and on your lips there's a sweet word and not a curse
    Ah, then I'll be comin' back one day when my wandering is over
    Ah, if you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth
    (if you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth)
    Ah, if you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth
    (if you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth)

  11. T.... ....

    Obrigado Mafia 3.

  12. K.... C....

    Saw them at a charity event at the Marriott hotel Bexleyheath🙆😘

  13. S.... F....

    Written by P.F. Sloan. A perfect reveal into a complicated and beautiful soul. S.E..

  14. m.... g....

    Frank Allan will never be as good a bass as Tony Jackson.

    m.... g....

    mick griffiths Man did you tell the truth !!! Loved Tony's scouse voice ! Tony Jackson was the best in the group !

    m.... g....

    Hmmm. Don't know about that. Tony Jackson couldn't even play bass when he joined the Searchers and had to learn it. His replacement, Frank Allen was a fairly accomplished bassist and still is. Jackson's forte was his voice -- totally unique, smooth, and arguably, the best lead singer of the British Invasion. He also sang great harmony with Mike Pender.

    m.... g....

    @R. Crompton Yes - all due respect to Tony Jackson but Frank Allen is very very good. I saw the Searchers in Melbourne Australia a couple of years ago and they were all good

  15. M.... B....

    They had better play this at my funeral!!!!!!

    M.... B....

    played at uncles in 89

    & hidden gems. Hope you enjoy :)
