"I Got A Name"
Released on December 1, 1973
" Like the pine trees lining the winding road
I got a name, I got a name
Like the singing bird and the croaking toad
I got a name, I got a name
And I carry it with me like my daddy did
But I'm living the dream that he kept hid
Moving me down the highway
Rolling me down the highway
Moving ahead so life won't pass me by
Like the north wind whistling down the sky
I've got a song, I've got a song
Like the whippoorwill and the baby's cry
I've got a song, I've got a song
And I carry it with me and I sing it loud
If it gets me nowhere, I go there proud
And I'm gonna go there free
I've got a dream, I've got a dream
They can change their minds
but they can't change me
but they can't change me
I've got a dream, I've got a dream
Well, I know I can share it
if you want me to
if you want me to
If you're going my way,
I'll go with you- "
I'll go with you- "

Great mirrow reflection.

i like that song, and now i've got it stuck in my head. :)
I rather like that song
I love Jim Croce and I Got A Name!! You have good taste in music!
I was a big Led Zeppelin fan when I was a kid, Cloudia. Used to have a Jimmy Page poster on my wall.
Great seeing your reflection!

I've always loved this song also. I sang along (good thing you couldn't hear me).
Oh my gosh yes, lots like in the Summertime that just set me free, but also songs like Sitting By the Dock of the Bay, just for the love of being close to water. So many, and they all still rock my world today.
Loved the words in that song. In those early years years mine was probably in Spanish.
Greetings from London.
U2 does that for me, something like Walk On or I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For. Very dramatic skies!
Great pictures and the words are inspiring too.
Merle........
