Recently, I've been thinkin' about what I am and where my priorities lie
Gettin' it together on some future plan, decidin' what I need to get by
I tried workin' and schoolin', but they're just not my plan, oh no
Can't ya see I'll always be a music man?

Well, I could be pickin' bluegrass or singin' the blues,
it doesn't really matter to me
As long as I'm playin' the music I just can't lose,
and no one's gonna tell me differently
'Cause all I really care about is sittin' right here in my hands,
oh yeah
Can't ya see I'll always be a music man?

Well, my momma sits and worries about me for days
Even though she really likes the way the boy plays
My daddy tells her I'm just goin' through a phase
But that's just what he always says
I hear what they're sayin', but I take it with a grain of sand, oh yeah
Can't ya see I'll always be a music man?
(repeat) yeah

Well, my momma sits and worries about me for days
Even though she really likes the way the boy plays
My daddy tells her that I'm goin' through a phase
But that's just what he always says
I hear what they're sayin', but I take it with a grain of sand, oh yeah
Can't ya see I'll always be a music man?

Well, I've told you my story now here's what I've found
To be happy you need only be real
So don't let anyone try to turn your head around
Just remember you are what you feel
You see all of my life, people been tryin' to tell me what I am, oh yeah
Can't ya see I'll always be a music man? oh! yeah
