I’m Glad I’m Me
by Julian Harvey

You wrote me a note
Said "Sorry but we're through"
Couldn't let it get me down
I knew what to do     
I quit my boring job   
Took what pay was owed
Loaded up my car
And hit the open road 
I'll travel day and night
To that ocean way out west
And I've got no time
For bein’ depressed

I'll tear by those roadside spots
Where they pour those shot down shots 
Drivin' on 'cause that drivin' 'll
Make me happy I'm alive 'n'
I’ll pull into a cheap motel 
Say goodbye and wish you well
Then jump in the Pacific sea 
And shout "I’m Glad I’m Me!" 

So now I’m movin’ out
Through desert dust and heat 
Doin’ mighty fine 
In the driver’s seat 
My car is runnin’ good
My credit card is clear
What would be the use
Of cryin’ in my beer?
There's a sign ahead
“Come on in and raise a glass”
But I'll say again
Gimme a pass 

Chorus

I’ll play my radio
Nothin’ very sad
When my radio is on
Why should I end up feelin’ bad?

Chorus
Repeat: I’m Glad I’m Me!
