I come from the school of hard knocks daily
But I ain't nobody's fool
And it might seem crazy
I got to justify, But I know
You're always gonna be around
Yeah I know
Whenever I'm in trouble
You're on the double somehow
(Chorus)
I wanna be like You
Oh won't you show me everything
I want the world to be looking at You
When they're looking at me
I wanna be like You
I wanna do all the things that you do
I don't want to be like any other man
I just wanna be like You
I'm headed stright for the top
Can't stay in the middle
No, I ain't gonna stop, Can't even slow down a little
But I know
Life ain't always what it seems
Yeah I know
That when I just can't take it
I know I'll make it, When you pull me through
(Chorus)
<Bridge>
Cause you're my hero
Oh Yeah
You can count on me Lord
To follow everything You do
But I ain't nobody's fool
And it might seem crazy
I got to justify, But I know
You're always gonna be around
Yeah I know
Whenever I'm in trouble
You're on the double somehow
(Chorus)
I wanna be like You
Oh won't you show me everything
I want the world to be looking at You
When they're looking at me
I wanna be like You
I wanna do all the things that you do
I don't want to be like any other man
I just wanna be like You
I'm headed stright for the top
Can't stay in the middle
No, I ain't gonna stop, Can't even slow down a little
But I know
Life ain't always what it seems
Yeah I know
That when I just can't take it
I know I'll make it, When you pull me through
(Chorus)
<Bridge>
Cause you're my hero
Oh Yeah
You can count on me Lord
To follow everything You do
