I TAKE A LOT OF PRIDE IN WHAT I AM

Things I learned in a ho-bo jungle
4 -5 -5 -5 5 5 -4 -4 -3 4 5
were things they never taught me in a classroom.
5 -5 6 -6 -5 5 -4
Like where to find a hand-out
5 -5 -5 -5 5 5 -4 -4 -3 4 5 5
while thumbing through Chicago in the afternoon.
6 6 6 6 6 6 5 -6 6
Hey, I'm not bragging nor complaining,
6 5 6 6 6 5 5 5 5 -4
I'm just talking to myself, man to man.
-5 -5 -5 -5 -5 -5 5 -4
This ol' mental fat I'm chewing,
-4 5 -5 -5 -5 -5 5 -4
didn't take a lot of doing,
-4 5 -5 5 -5 6 5 -4 4 -3 4
But I Take A Lot Of Pride In What I Am.
I guess I grew up a loner,
I don't remember ever having any folks around.
But I keep thumbing through the phone books,
And looking for my Daddy's name in every town.
And I meet lots of friendly people,
that I always end up leaving on the lam.
Hey, where I've been and where I'm going
didn't take a lot of knowing,
But I Take A Lot Of Pride In What I Am.
I never travel in a hurry,
'Cause I got nobody waiting for me anywhere.
Home is anywhere I'm living,
If it's sleeping on some vacant bench in City
Square.
Or if I'm working on some road gang,
or just living off the fat of our great land.
I never been nobody's idol,
But at least I go a title,
And I Take A Lot Of Pride In What I Am.
