Things I learned in hobo jungleWere things they never taught me in a class roomLike where to find a hand outWhile bummin' through Chicago in the afternoonHey, I'm not braggin' or complainin'I'm just talkin' to myself man to manThis ol' mental fat I'm chewin' didn't take a lotta doin'But I take a lot of pride in what I amI guess I grew up a lonerI don't remember ever havin' any folks aroundBut I keep thumbin' through the phonebooksAnd looking for my daddy's name in every townAnd I meet lots of friendly peopleBut I'll always wind up leavin' on the lamHey, where I've been or where I'm goin'Didn't take a lotta knowin'But I take a lot of pride in what I amI never travel in a hurryBecause I got nobody waitin' for me anywhereHome is anywhere I'm livin'If it's sleepin' on some vacant bench in City SquareOr if I'm workin' on some road gangOr just livin' off the fat of our great landI never been nobody's idol but at least I got a titleAnd I take a lot of pride in what I amI never been nobody's idolI take a lot of pride in what I amI take a lot of pride in what I am
