Down at the railroad station

There's people gettin' on

Some are goin' North and some are goin' South

I'm just going to be gone

Some people are born to be takers

Others just want to give

Some people live just to love

But I just love to live

Oh, I was just born to be

Exactly what you see

Nothin' more or less

I'm not the worst or the best

I just try to be

Exactly what you see

Today and everyday

I'm just me

When people say that life is rough

I wonder: compared to what?

Some'll want more and more's a-gettin' less

I just want what I've got

Some will live on a hill

Others by the sea

Some will live inside high walls

I just wanna live free

Well, I was just born to be

Exactly what you see

Nothin' more or less

I'm not the worst or the best

I just try to be

Exactly what you see

Today and everyday

I'm just me

Oh, I was just born to be

Exactly what you see

Today and everyday

I'm just me
