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 being the way I am   Wish I enjoyed what makes my living Did what I do with a willin' hand Some would run, ah, but that ain't like me So 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 bobber dancin' So I just dream, keep on being 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  I just dream, keep on bein' the way I am
