| 作词 : Haggard | |
| 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', | |
| Just talkin' to myself man to man. | |
| This ole' mental fat I'm chewin' didn't take alot of doin'. | |
| But I take alot 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. | |
| Where I've been or where I'm goin' | |
| Didn't take alot of knowin', | |
| But I take alot of pride in what I am. | |
| --- Instrumental --- | |
| I never travel in a hurry, | |
| 'Cause 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 alot of pride in what I am. | |
| I never been nobody's idol, But at least I got a title, | |
| And I take alot of pride in what I am. | |
| I take alot of pride in what I am. | |
| I take alot of pride in what I am... |
