Can't Help What I Am

(album: Eddie Kendricks - 1973)

Huh-huh huh-huh
Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo
Huh-huh huh-huh
Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo
Huh-huh huh-huh

I can't help it, what I am
Can't help it, what I do
I can't help it, what I am (Baby)
I'm still in love with you (With you)

I believe
Somewhere there's someone
So much bigger than me
And he's controlling the earth and the sun
And each way, gotta take
Smallest little step
Every move I make
Darling, girl, it's by his hands, baby
It's by his plans

That's why, can't help it, what I am (Can't help it)
Can't help it, what I do
I can't help it, what I am
I'm still in love with you (I believe)

I do foolish things
Like puppets in a kid show
See how they dance at the end of strings
Never knowing which way to go
Hands go left, feet go right
Everybody laughs at the funny, funny sight
Girl, I just cry when I see
They're so very much like me

That's why, can't help it, what I am (Can't help it)
Can't help it, what I do
Can't help it, what I am
I'm still in love with you

Oh, time and time, I've tried
Not to play this part
But there's a small voice deep inside me
Ruling my poor heart

That's why, can't help it, what I am (Can't help it)
(Can't help it, what I do)
(Oh, baby)
(I'm still in love with you)

I can't help it, what I am (Can't help it)
Can't help it, what I do
I can't help it, what I am (Oh, baby)
'Cause I'm still in love with you

Can't help it, what I am (Can't help it)
Can't help it, what I do
Can't help it, what I am (Oh, baby)
'Cause I'm still, still, still in love with you

(Can't help it) Try to understand it, girl, I can't help it
(Can't help it, what I do) Don't matter how I fight it
Girl, I just can't help it (Oh, baby)
What I am
I'm still in love with you

(Can't help it) Try to understand it, girl, I can't help it
(Can't help it, what I do) Won't matter how I fight it
Girl, I just can't help it (Oh, baby)
What I am
I'm still in love, love, love, love, love with you, baby

(Can't help it)
