(Darryl Worley/Leslie)
I`d like to lay this old hammer down
Drive my pickup truck to town
Find a friend and just hang around
If I could just be me
Grab a bobber and my old cane pole
Spend a evenin` at the fishin` hole
Why I wouldn`t hurt a soul
If I could just be me
I`ve learned to live behind these fences
But I`m not the kind of man to just go along
Now and then I need a chance to be who I am
Maybe sing a different song
I need to put my worries on a shelf
Take some time to get to know myself
I wouldn`t have to be nobody else
If I could just be me
I`ve learned to live behind these fences
But I`m not the kind of man to just go along
Now and then I need a chance to be who I am
Maybe sing a different song
If I didn`t have these bills to pay
If I could really have my way
I`d lay around and love on you all day
If I could just be me
If I didn`t have these bills to pay
If I could just be me
If I could just be me
If I could just be me
