I Take A Lot Of Pride In What I Am Lyrics - Dean Martin

Things I learned in a hobo jungle 

Were things they never taught me in a class room 

Like where to find a handout 

While thumbing through Chicago in the afternoon 

Hey I'm not bragging or complaining 

I'm just talking to myself man to man 

This old lentil 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 

Don't remember ever having any folks around 

But I keep thumbing through the phonebooks 

And looking for my Daddy's name in every town 

And I meet lots of people 

But I always end up leaving on the lam 

Hey where I've been, where I'm going 

I didn't take a lot of knowing 

But I take a lot of pride in what I am

I never travel in a hurry 

'Cause I got nobody waiting for me anywhere 

Home is anywhere I'm living 

If it's sleeping on some vacant beach or 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 have a title 

And I take a lot of pride in what I am 

This old lentil fat I'm chewing 

Didn't take a lot of doing 

I take a lot of pride in what I am
