I Got a Name

Jim Croce

Transposer:

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 a north wind whistling down the sky, I got a song, I got a song Like the whirlpool will 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'll go there proud Moving me down the highway, rolling me down the highway Moving ahead so life won't pass me by ||| || And I'm gonna go there free Like the fool I am and I'll always be, I've got a dream, I've got a dream They can change their minds but they can't change me I've got a dream, I've got a dream I know I could share it, if you want me to If you're going my way, I'll go with you Moving me down the highway, rolling me down the highway Moving ahead so life won't pass me by Moving me down the highway, rolling me down the highway Moving ahead so life won't pass me by

Cette chanson évoque l'idée de l'identité personnelle et des rêves. Elle souligne l'importance d'avoir un nom et une chanson qui nous appartiennent, tout comme les arbres et les animaux de la nature qui expriment leur essence. L'artiste parle de son parcours, de la manière dont il avance dans la vie avec loyauté envers ses racines, tout en poursuivant ses aspirations avec fierté. Il exprime également la volonté de vivre librement, de ne pas se laisser influencer par les opinions des autres et de partager son rêve avec ceux qui le souhaitent. En somme, c'est une célébration de l'authenticité et d'un voyage de vie rempli de détermination.
