Mirror Songtext
von Willie Tee

I keep looking at myself in the mirror
But I don′t like what I see, no
It doesn't reveal what I thought I had
My soul is right but my face is bad
Oh, it just ain′t right
What can an ugly man do?

The good Lord up above, you know he made us, yeah
It's not our face but our soul that's gonna save us, yeah
But as long as I′m living on this planet
The treatment I get gonna drive me insane
Oh, it just ain′t right
It's a losing fight


Now all of my life
I′ve always tried to do right
But most folks, most folks, most folks
They put me down
I have tried to ignore them
The things that I do, Lord, seem to bore them
Oh, and my face just ain't right
It′s a losing fight

But I'll keep looking at myself in the mirror
Hoping that time will bring about a change, yeah
And I hope someday that people will see
Behind this face there′s a beautiful me
Oh, I'm gonna do all I can, girl
To be a patient man
Baby, baby, do all I can, girl
To be a patient man
Oh, my face just ain't frightening, girl
But I′m gonna keep on trying, baby
