Gerry Rafferty › Lyrics › The Way That You Do It

You got a way of telling me I’m wrong
You got a way of coming on so strong
I can take it from you
Yeah, you know I always do

'Cause you got a way that you do it
It’s the way that you do it
The way that you do it just got to be right

You got a way of leaving me no doubt
You got a way of telling me what I’m about
I couldn't take it from anyone else
Yeah, I really surprised myself

'Cause you got a way that you do it
It’s the way that you do it
The way that you do it just got to be right

You help me, you help me when I feel alone
You help me, you help me when I’m down and I’m stuck on my own
You wake me up to all the little things that I don’t see

You help me, you help me, help me, help me out
You help me, you help me see myself and what I’m all about
You give me reason to believe that everything that can be

You got a way of knowing just how I feel
You got a way of letting me know what’s real
I don’t get it from anyone else
Though I try to fool myself

'Cause you got a way that you do it
It’s the way that you do it
The way that you do it just got to be right

You help me, you help me when I feel alone
You help me, you help me when I’m down and I’m stuck on my own
You wake me up to all the little things that I don’t see

You help me, you help me, help me, help me out
You help me, you help me see myself and what I’m all about
You give me reason to believe that everything that can be

You got a way of telling me I’m wrong
You got a way of coming on so strong
I can take it from you
Yeah, you know I always do

'Cause you got a way that you do it
It’s the way that you do it
The way that you do it just got to be right
The way that you do it just got to be right
The way that you do it just got to be right
