I Am Sam

I wish I could write like Keating King
And play guitar like John Cummings
If I could perform like James Osterburg
Or even sing like Li'l Ring

I'd be a real cool guy
People would know who I am
Or people would ask who I am
I am Sam, I am Sam, I am Sam

Someday I'll play drums like Moe Tucker
And I'll play keyboards like the guy from the Cars
I don't remember his name
And he don't know who I am

I am Sam
That's who I am
My name is Sam
People will know who I am

I wish I could write like Keating King
And play guitar like John Cummings
If I could perform like James Osterburg
Or even sing like Li'l Ring

I'd be a real cool guy
People would know who I am
Or people would ask who I am
I am Sam, I am Sam, I am Sam
