"The Way I Am" Lyrics

(Sonny Throckmorton)

Wish I were 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
It's what I do with a willing hand
Some would run but that ain't like me
I just dream, keep on being the way I am.

Chorus:
The way I am don't fit my shackles
The way I am, reality
I can almost see that bobber dancin'
I just dream, keep on being the way I am.

--- Instrumental ---

Chorus:
The way I am don't fit my shackles
The way I am, reality
I can almost see that bobber dancin'
I just dream, keep on being the way I am

I just dream, and keep on being the way I am.

Yoo da lay eee.. Yoo da lay eee...
