The Way I Am lyrics
Wish I was down on some blue bayou
With a bamboo cane stuck in the sand
But the road I'm on, don't seem to go there
So I just dream, keep on bein' the way I am
Wish I enjoyed what makes my living
Did what I do with a willin' hand
Some would run, but that ain't like me
I just dream and keep on bein' the way I am
The way I am, don't fit my shackles
The way I am, reality
I can almost see that barber dancin'
So I just dream, keep on bein' the way I am
And I guess, I grew up alone
I don't remember ever having any folks around
So, I keep thumbing through the phone books
I'm looking for my daddy's name in every town
And I meet lots of friendly people
But I always wind up living on the limb
Hey, where I've been and where I'm going
Didn't take a lot of knowing
And I got a lot of questions 'bout what I am
The way I am, don't fit my shackles
The way I am, reality
I can almost feel the tattooist's needle
But I just dream, keep on bein' the way I am
Hey, I'm not bragging or complaining
I'm just talking to myself, man to man
And I just dream, keep on bein' the way I am
