Il testo della The way i am

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, 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 bobber dancin'
So i just dream, keep on bein' the way i am

And i guess i grew up a loner
Don't remember ever having any folks around

So i keep thumbing through the phone books
And looking for my daddy's name in every town

And i meet lots of friendly people
But i always wind up leaving on the land
Hey, where i've been, where i'm born didn't take a lot of knowing
And i got a lot of questions about 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
So 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

Yodel-eh-te-ho, ho-te
