Lyrics

Dreamin' Man

Well they all call me a dreamer
Said I'm wastin' precious time.
I'll never get on the box they said,
Singin' my simple rhyme.
But I could not let them stop me no from being what is me,
So I'll keep on strokin' for the top,
Call me dreamer guess that's me.

Bop ba de oppa
Ba de ah de ah,
Bop ba de oppa
ba de ah de ah.

Well a man has got to listen,
When his mind tells him it's time,
To throw a way that no I can't,
And lay things on the line.
And a dream is just a dream as long as you stand in its way,
You got to step aside,
Take it all in stride,
Make your dreams come true today.

Pre chorus
And I know it may sound foolish,
But don't rain on my parade.
And if you choose to cut this message short,
Your gonna surely wish you'd stayed.

Chorus
'Cause I'm a dreamer, oh yes I am.
I'm a dreamer, a stone dreamin' man.
I'm a dreamer, oh yes I am,
A stone dreamer,
A stone dreamin' man.

Well I'm such a damned romantic
I say dreams can still come true,
And if you choose not to believe me,
Well I sure feel sorry for you.
But they still call me a dreamer,
And it seems a shame to see,
That they do not seem to understand
A poor dreamin' man like me.
