--- Start Of I Got A Name Lyrics ---

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 whistling down the sky
I've got a song ... I've got a song
Like the whiperwill and the babies crying
I've got a song ... I've got a song
And I carry it with me and I sing it proud
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

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 they can't change me
I've got a dream ... I've got a dream
I know I could share it if you want me to
If your going my way ... I'll go with you

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