The Way I Am Lyrics

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’d enjoyed what makes my living
Did what I do with a willing hand
Some would run, oh, but that ain’t like me
So I’ll 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’
So I’ll 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’
So I’ll just dream and keep on bein’ the way I am
I’ll just dream and keep on bein’ the way I am

Today I Started Loving You Again Lyrics

Song by Merle Haggard

Today I started loving you again
And I’m right back where I’ve really always been
I got all over you just long enough to let my heartache mend
And then today I started loving you again

What a fool I was to think I could get by
With only these few million tears I’ve cried
I should have known the worst was yet to come
And that cryin’ time for me had just begun

Today I started loving you again
And I’m right back where I’ve really always been
I got all over you just long enough to let my heartache mend
And then today I started loving you again

Today I started loving you again
And I’m right back where I’ve really always been
I got all over you just long enough to let my heartache mend
And then today I started loving you again

Mama’s Hungry Eyes Lyrics

Song by Merle Haggard

A canvas covered cabin in a crowded labor camp
Stands out in this memory I revile
My daddy raised a family there with two hard working hand
And tried to feed my mamas hungry eyes.

He dreamed of something better and my mama’s faith was stong
Us kids were just to young to realize
That another class of people put us somewhere just below
One more reason for my mama’s hungry eyes.

Mama, never had the luxury she wanted
But it wasn’t ’cause my daddy didn’t try
She only wanted things she really needed
One more reason for my mama’s hungry eyes.

I remember mama praying for a better way of life
But I don’t recall a change of any size
Just a little loss of courage as their age began to show
And more sadness in my mama’s hungry eyes.

Mama never had the luxury she wanted
But it wasn’t ’cause my daddy didn’t try
She only wanted things she really needed
One more reason for my mama’s hungry eyes.

Oh, I still recall my mama’s hungry eyes…
