Intro: Verse Wish I was down on some blue bayou A bamboo cane stuck in the sand But the road I'm on don't seem to go there So I'll just dream, and keep on being the way I am Wish I enjoyed what makes my living Did what I do with a willing hand Some would run, ah but that ain't like me So I'll just dream, and 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'll just dream, keep on being the way I am Bridge: The way I am don't fit my shackles The way I am, reality I can almost see that bobber dancin' So I'll just dream, and keep on being the way I am So I'll just dream, keep on being the way I am Outro:
