ARTIST: Norman Gimbel and Charles Fox
TITLE: I Got a Name
Lyrics and Chords


Like the pine trees linin' the windin' road
I've got a name, I've got a name
Like the singin' bird and the croakin' toad
I've got a name, I've got a name
And I carry it with me like my daddy did
But I'm livin' the dream that he kept hid
Movin' me down the highway
Rollin' me down the highway
Movin' ahead so life won't pass me by

/ D A Bm Bm7 / G A D - / D A Bm - / E7 - A - /  
    / F#m G D F#m / Bm E7 A - / F#m G / F#m B7 / G A D - /

Like the north wind whistlin' down the sky
I've got a song, I've got a song
Like the whippoorwill and the baby's cry
I've got a song, I've got a song
And I carry it with me and I sing it loud
If it gets me nowhere, I'll go there proud
Movin' me down the highway...

And I'm gonna go there free

/ D - - - /

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
Oh, I know I could share it if you want me to
If you're going my way, I'll go with you
Movin' me down the highway...
