I Take A Lot Of Pride In What I Am (2006 Digital Remaster) - Merle Haggard
Written by：Merle Haggard
Things I learned in a hobo jungle

Were things they never taught me in a classroom

Like where to find a handout

While thumbing through Chicago in the afternoon

Hey I'm not bragging or complaining
And just talking to myself man to man

This old mental fat I'm chewing didn't take a lot
Of doing
But I take a lot of pride in what I
Am

I guess I grew up a loner

I don't remember ever having any folks around

But I keep thumbing through the phone books

And looking for my daddy's name in every town

And I meet lots of friendly people
That I always end up leaving on the lam

Hey where I've been or where I'm going
Didn't take a lot of knowing
But I take a lot of pride in what I
Am

I never travel in a hurry

Because I got nobody waiting for me anywhere

Home is anywhere I'm living

If it's sleeping on some vacant bench in city square

Or if I'm working on some road gang
Or just living off the fat of our great land

I never been nobody's idol but at least I got
A title
And I take a lot of pride in what I
Am

I never been nobody's idol but at least I got
A title
And I take a lot of pride in what I
Am

I take a lot of pride in what I am

I take a lot of pride in what I am
