Merle Haggard Miscellaneous I Take A Lot Of Pride In What I Am (1969) Things Ive learned in a hobo jungle Are things they never taught me in a classroom Like where to find a handout While bumming through Chicago in the middle of the afternoon Hey Im not bragging or complaining Im just talking to myself man to man But this mental fat Im chewing did take a lot of doing But I take a lot of pride in what I am I guess I grew up a loner I dont remember ever having any folks around And I keep thumbing through the phone books And looking for my daddys name in every town I meet lots of friendly people But I always wind up leaving on the lam Hey where Ive been and where Im going didnt take a lot of knowing But I take a lot of pride in what I am Never travel in a hurry Cause I got nobody waiting for me anywhere Home is anywhere Im living If its sleeping on a vacant bench in city square Or if Im working on some road gang or living off the back of our great man Ive never been nobodys idol at least I got a title I take a lot of pride in what I am Ive never been nobodys idol at least I got a title I take a lot of pride in what I am I take a lot of pride in what I am I take a lot of pride in what I am |
