I Am What I Am

I am what I am, yes, I’m one of the people
I scheme and I dream and I try
I am what I am, yes, I’m one of the people
I’m happy to live 'til I die
I’m happy to live 'til I die
I can look at the world with the most understanding
From my tenement flat on the second landing
It’s been raining today but I really don’t care
I’ve got sun in my heart and a daydream to share
Yes, I have
I am what I am, yes, I’m one of the people
I scheme and I dream and I try
I am what I am, yes, I’m one of the people
I’m happy to live 'til I die
I’m happy to live 'til I die
I believe in the end when the roll call’s taken
We’ll be laughing together without hesitation
I’ve been known by some to be a dreamer of sorts
But I’ll follow the road and I’m happy of course
Yes, I am
I am what I am, yes, I’m one of the people
I scheme and I dream and I try
I am what I am, yes I’m one of the people
I’m happy to live 'til I die
I’m happy to live 'til I die
I’ve been happy, I’ve been sad
Sometimes good, sometimes bad
But I am what I am, yes, I’m one of the people
I scheme and I dream and I try
I am what I am, yes I’m one of the people
I’m happy to live 'til I die
I’m happy to live 'til I die …
I am what I am, yes, I’m one of the people
I am what I am, yes, I’m one of the people
