I'm walking through life in nature's disguise You laugh at me and you criticize 'Cause I'm happy, carefree and gay Yes, I'm gay Ain't no fault - it's a fact I was born this way - yeah Now I won't judge you - don't you judge me We're all the way nature meant us to be
Chorus I'm happy, I'm carefree and I'm gay I was born this way
You call me strange 'cause you don't understand God's role for me in life's overall plan I've learned to hold my head up high Not in scorn nor disgrace Doin' my thing individually Entwined with this human race
Now I won't judge you - don't you judge me We're all the way nature meant us to be
Chorus
You laugh at me and you got the nerve to criticize If I were you I'd sit down And consider what you're doin' Love me and I love you And together ain't no tellin' what we'll do Yeah - born I said From a little bitty bitty boy I was born this way
I love you, I love you And even you - born this way - yeah I'm tellin' y'all one more time I was born this way, proud to tell it I was born this way Gonna shout it, tell the world about it I was born this way
