Jim Croce - I Got a Name [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1: Jim Croce]
Like the pine trees lining the winding road
I got a name, I got a name
Like the singing bird and the croaking toad
I got a name, I got a name
And I carry it with me like my daddy did
But I'm living the dream that he kept hid

[Chorus]
Movin' me down the highway, rollin' me down the highway
Movin' ahead so life won't pass me by

[Verse 2: Jim Croce]
Like the north wind whistlin' down the sky
I got a song, I got a song
Like the whippoorwill and the baby's cry
I got a song, I got a song
And I carry it with me and I sing it loud
If it gets me nowhere, I'll go there proud

[Chorus]
Movin' me down the highway, rollin' me down the highway
Movin' ahead so life won't pass me by

[Transition]
And I'm gonna go there free

[Verse 3: Jim Croce]
Like the fool I am and I'll always be
I got a dream, I got a dream
They can change their minds but the can't change me
I got a dream, I 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

[Chorus x2]
Movin' me down the highway, rollin' me down the highway
Movin' ahead so life won't pass me by
