Like Me Drivin' down the road again A highway that never ends Takin' naps in my old car Singin' in guitar bars Killin' time with cafe queens And truckers playin' slot machines I meet a lot of wannabes Dreamin' big and livin' free like me
Charlie runs the Produce Shack Livin' in a van out back Sellin' peas and homemade syrup Cantaloupes and Elvis shirts Braggin' on future plans With whiskey breath and shaky hands I meet a lot of wannabes Dreamin' big and livin' free like me
Wearin' wrinkled travelin' clothes To another one-night show 'Cause that's where I was born to be Have guitar, will travel light Here today and gone tonight Playin' this lifetime lottery
Here's to faces I have seen
A carnival of those who dream Rodeos seekin' fame Table dancers I can't name Willie T. in Abilene Karaoke's all-time king And every six string wannabe Dreamin' big and livin' free like me
Wearin' wrinkled travelin' clothes To another one-night show 'Cause that's where I was born to be Have guitar, will travel light Here today and gone tonight Playin' this lifetime lottery
To every dreamer I have known May Lady Luck take you home I pray for every wannabe Dreamin' big and livin' free like me I pray for every wannabe Dreamin' big and livin' free ... like me
