Hey I’ve been a drifter Almost all my days The ways of a gambler I have made them my ways I’ve been a great dreamer At that I’ve done fine For I have been dreaming A long , long time But I believe in my dreams And if they ever come true I hope it makes no one jealous I hope it makes no one blue I’ll just say I deserve it That makes it all fine For I have been dreaming A long , long time chorus: Yeah I ‘ve paid my dues Sung my blues, Traveled lonely miles I’ve loved and lost and paid the cost For the dreaming in my mind,..... So here’s to all dreamers I know you know who you are I hope you find The pathway to your star I hope you get high on Your own special dream wine For I know you’ve been dreaming A long, long time Chorus : I know you’ve paid your dues Sung your blues Traveled lonely miles I know you’ve loved and lost And paid the cost For the dreaming in your mind,....
