    Hard hittin' and truth tellin' tune! Here's a song that speaks to the individual in all of us. Seems like we all get pushed around by the world and life in general. Sometimes we gotta stand up and say "I just wanna be me!" Plus! It's just plain fun to listen to !

    Lyrics
    I Just Gotta Be Me

    Daddy always told me, momma used to scold me,
    Better put the guitar down.
    You'll be lacking knowledge, less you stay in college,
    And outta those bars downtown.
    I've tried, lord knows I've tried.
    But I could never do it, seems I always blew it.
    Walkin someone else's line.
    I was late when they were early, straight when they were curly.
    Water when they wanted wine.
    Is it a sin, to not quite fit in.

    I just wanna be me, wild and kinda crazy,
    A little bit against the grain.
    I wanna be free, free to paint the picture.
    The one that only I can paint.
    I refuse to be what someone else thinks I should be.
    I just wanna be me.

    Well there ain't no rules written, that says I can't go fishin.
    Spend the week , just me and her.
    As long as we got money , to get us through to sunday.
    Monday I'll be back at work.
    But I won't die, just to make a dime.

    I just wanna be me, wild and kinda crazy,
    A little bit against the grain.
    I wanna be free, free to paint the picture.
    The one that only I can paint.
    I refuse to be what someone else thinks I should be.
    I just wanna be me.
    I just wanna be me.


    *** instrumental break***


    Is it a sin, to not quite fit in.

    I just wanna be me, wild and kinda crazy,
    A little bit against the grain.
    I wanna be free, free to paint the picture.
    The one that only I can paint.
    I refuse to be what someone else thinks I should be.
    I just wanna be me.
    I just wanna be me.
    I just wanna be me.

    fade-out..
