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, and keep on bein' the way I am

Wish I enjoyed, what makes my livin'
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'
But 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'
But I just dream, and keep on bein' the way I am

Yeah, I just dream and keep on bein' the way I am
