Lyrics I Take a Lot of Pride in What I Am

Things I learned in a hobo jungle were things they never taught me in a classroom

Like where to find a handout while thumbin' through Chicago in the afternoon

Hey I'm not braggin' or complainin'

I'm Just talkin' to myself man to man

This ol' mental fat I'm chewin' didn't take a lot of doin'

But I take a lot of pride in what I am

I guess I grew up a loner

I don't remember ever havin' any folks around

But I keep thumbin' through the phone books and lookin' for my daddy's name in every town

And I meet lots of friendly people that I always end up leavin' on the lam

And where I've been or where I'm goin' didn't take a lot of knowin'

But I take a lot of pride in what I am

I never travel in a hurry 'cos I got nobody waitin' for me anywhere

Home is anywhere I'm livin'

If it's sleepin' on some vacant bench in City Square

Or if I'm workin' on some road gang or just livin' off the fat of our great land

I never been nobody's idol but at least I got a title and I take a lot of pride in what I am

I take a lot of pride in what I am
