Generate meaning
1
Wish I was down on some blue bayou
2
With a bamboo cane stuck in the sand
3
But the road I'm on, don't seem to go there
4
So I just dream, keep on bein' the way I am
5
Wish I enjoyed what makes my living
6
Did what I do with a willin' hand
7
Some would run, but that ain't like me
8
I just dream and keep on bein' the way I am
9
The way I am, don't fit my shackles
10
The way I am, reality
11
I can almost see that barber dancin'
12
So I just dream, keep on bein' the way I am
13
And I guess, I grew up alone
14
I don't remember ever having any folks around
15
So, I keep thumbing through the phone books
16
I'm looking for my daddy's name in every town
17
And I meet lots of friendly people
18
But I always wind up living on the limb
19
Hey, where I've been and where I'm going
20
Didn't take a lot of knowing
21
And I got a lot of questions 'bout what I am
22
The way I am, don't fit my shackles
23
The way I am, reality
24
I can almost feel the tattooist's needle
25
But I just dream, keep on bein' the way I am
26
Hey, I'm not bragging or complaining
27
I'm just talking to myself, man to man
28
And I just dream, keep on bein' the way I am
