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
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 bein' the way I am

And I guess I grew up a loner
Don't remember ever having any folks aroundBonnie Prince Billy - The Way I Am - http://motolyrics.com/bonnie-prince-billy/the-way-i-am-lyrics.html
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 wander 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 the way I am

The way I am, don't fit my shackles
The way I am, reality
I can almost feel the tatooist 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
