Lyrics:Kevin Cronin Music:Kevin Cronin 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 there 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 noones 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 (solo) 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 (repeat)
