Jon English – Just The Way I Am lyrics
Walkin' through the city early mornin' Sunday, feelin' fine
I got a dollar in my pocket and a belly full of rough red wine
People stare then look away but I stare back at them and say
That it's, just the way I am
I was born a travellin' ma-an
Luck ain't in my ha-ands
But I'm happy the way I a-a-am
Well I'll hang around 'til 10 o'clock then head down to the public bar
10 cents and a beer-eer and I'll play anything on my guitar
And if it turns out a sunny day, well then, I might play it anyway
'Cause it's, just the way I am
I was born a travellin' ma-an
Luck ain't in my ha-ands
But I'm happy, the way I a-a-am
I'll play it now
And if it turns out a sunny day, well I might play it anyway
'Cause it's just the way I am
I was born a travellin' ma-an
Luck ain't in my ha-ands
But I'm happy, the way I a-a-am
Well, one day if I feel it, then I might just stop and settle down
Somewhere nice and peaceful like a shady little border town
Until then I'll walk the night, don't fret for me sir, I'm alright
It's just the way I am
I was born a travellin' ma-an
Luck ain't in my ha-ands
But I'm happy, the way I a-a-am
I'll walk it now, Keep on walkin', Got to keep movin', Yeah
Keep on movin', Got to keep walkin', Walk on down the line
Just the way I am
I got a dollar in my pocket and a belly full of rough red wine
People stare then look away but I stare back at them and say
That it's, just the way I am
I was born a travellin' ma-an
Luck ain't in my ha-ands
But I'm happy the way I a-a-am
Well I'll hang around 'til 10 o'clock then head down to the public bar
10 cents and a beer-eer and I'll play anything on my guitar
And if it turns out a sunny day, well then, I might play it anyway
'Cause it's, just the way I am
I was born a travellin' ma-an
Luck ain't in my ha-ands
But I'm happy, the way I a-a-am
I'll play it now
And if it turns out a sunny day, well I might play it anyway
'Cause it's just the way I am
I was born a travellin' ma-an
Luck ain't in my ha-ands
But I'm happy, the way I a-a-am
Well, one day if I feel it, then I might just stop and settle down
Somewhere nice and peaceful like a shady little border town
Until then I'll walk the night, don't fret for me sir, I'm alright
It's just the way I am
I was born a travellin' ma-an
Luck ain't in my ha-ands
But I'm happy, the way I a-a-am
I'll walk it now, Keep on walkin', Got to keep movin', Yeah
Keep on movin', Got to keep walkin', Walk on down the line
Just the way I am
