I've got nothing up my sleeves
I got this dusty old head full of broken dreams
Don't you put my back up against the wall
Cause I've got nothing to lose, unlike you
I've got this dented old can of beans
This overpass to keep me dry and free from the breeze
Don't you judge and give me your evil eye
Cause I've lived this life of hell there’s still more time
And I've lived this life of hell well there’s still more time
They call me Sam
Sam I am
They call me Sam
Samuel
I’ve got this jar of homemade shine
Some broken chicken bones, dreams of shoofly pie
Don't you underestimate a poor man with pride
I’m just like you when I die, I reach for the sky
They call me Sam
Sam I am
They call me Sam
Samuel
I live on the streets under my feet
I walk a poor man’s beat
I know the dogs where I eat
I know them well
I know I got the strength
To pick myself up and make this change
My momma she gave my name
She called me Sam
Sam I am
They call me Sam
Samuel
I've got nothing up my sleeves
I got this dusty old head full of broken dreams
Don't you judge and give me your evil eye
I've lived this life of hell and still more time
I've lived this life of hell well theres still more time
They call me Sam
Sam I am
They call me Sam
Samuel
They call me Sam
Sam I am
Sam I am
Sam I am
Sam I am
