I Am What I Am (Rerecorded)

I Am What I Am (Rerecorded) - Gloria Gaynor

I am what I am

I am my own special creation

So come take a look

Give me the hook or the ovation

It's my world

That I want to have a little pride in

My world

And it's not a place I have to hide in

Life's not worth a damn

Till you can say

I am what I am

I am what I am

I don't want praise I don't want pity

I bang my own drum

Some think it's noise I think it's pretty

And so what

If I love each sparkle and each bangle

Why not try to see

Things from a different angle

Your life is a shame

Till you can shout out

I am what I am

I am what I am

And what I am needs no excuses

I deal my own deck

Sometimes the aces

Sometimes the deuces

It's one life and

There's no return and no deposit

One life so

It's time to open up your closet

Life's not worth a damn

Till you can shout out

I am what I am

I am what I am

I am what I am

I am what I am
