Way I Am
The other night I had a crazy dream Bout a man in a fishing hat Selling magazines All the way from Kingston He had worked his way down And I bought him this drink On the night they kicked him out of town He said You know I don't like the way I am You know I don't like the way I am Saw an old fisherman out swaying on the dock Swinging a jug of something in the string of fish he had caught His wife had left him just a week before She packed up her bags and she waltzed on out the door And she said You know I don't like the way I am You know I don't like the way I am And then she cried Right out loud She sang You and me walked down the shores of our youth Chasing the sunrise and challenging the truth Its all so distant now I've seen too many lies SongtexteTurning my vision into crumbling demise Makes me want to say I don't like the way I am You see I don't like the way I am I'm gonna change the way I am I'm gonna change the way I am Right now Hear me crying out loud The other night I had this crazy dream Bout a man in a fishing hat He was selling old magazines All the way from Kingston He had worked his way down And I bought him a drink on the night they kicked him out of town You know I don't like the way I am You know I don't like the way I am But I'm gonna change the way I am Yes I am I'm gonna change the way I am And he played the sweetest song for me On his squeezebox by the sea Aus Songtexte Mania
