Jim Croce

Like the pine trees lining the winding road,
I've got a name, I've got a name
Like the singing bird and the croaking toad,
I've got a name, I've got a name

And I carry it with me like my daddy did
But I'm living the dream that he kept hid.

Moving me down the highway, rolling me down the highway
Moving ahead so life won't pass me by.

Like the north wind whistlin down the sky,
I've got a song, I've got a song
Like the whippoorwill and the baby's cry,
I've got a song, I've got a song

And I carry it with me and I sing it loud;
If it gets me nowhere, I'll go there proud.

Moving me down the highway, rolling me down the highway
Moving ahead so life won't pass me by.

(Guitar Break)

And I'm gonna go there free...

Like the fool I am and I'll always be,
I've got a dream, I've got a dream
They can change their minds but the can't change me,
I've got a dream, I've got a dream

Oh, I know I could share it if you'd want me to;
If you're goin' my way, I'll go with you.

Movin' me down the highway, rollin' me down the highway
Movin' ahead so life won't pass me by.
Movin' me down the highway, rollin' me down the highway
Movin' ahead so life won't pass me by.
