I've Got a Name - Jim Croce

"I've Got A Name Lyrics"

Like the pine trees lining the winding road

I got a name, I got a name

Like the singing bird and the croaking toad

I got a name, I got a name

And I carry it with me like my daddy did

But I'm living the dream that he kept hid

Moving me down the highway

Rolling me down the highway

Moving ahead so life won't pass me by

Like the north wind whistling 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 go there proud

Moving me down the highway

Rolling me down the highway

Moving ahead so life won't pass me by

And I'm gonna go there free

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

Well, I know I can share it if you want me to

If you're going my way, I'll go with you

Moving me down the highway

Rolling me down the highway

Moving ahead so life won't pass me by

Moving me down the highway

Rolling me down the highway

Moving ahead so life won't pass me by

This song is original soundtrack of Django Unchained but I have no intentention to this song till I watched a film about American footballer Vince Papale who played for the Philadelphia Eagles 1976-1978. Mark Wahlberg potrtrays Papale in this fim. I've got a name is Jim Croce greatest hits. Some write it as "I Got a Name" or "I've Got a name" but I think it doesn't matter to write the title of this song in both ways. Ice storm, Invicible, and Django unchained are the films use this song as the original soundtrack.When U pay attention to the lyrics seems the writer tells us about pride in his identity. This a lovely song, Just listen and enjoy it.
