Well...FEAR NOT pallies! I got's JUST what Dr. Martin ordered!!! Hahaha!!! This week's Serenade, "I Take A Lot Of Pride In What I Am", is the PERFECT song of inspiration & just the RIGHT tune to kick those blues out the door!
Ain't got no time for that stuff pals...Dino didn't bother with nonsense like that & neither should we! I do my BEST to live my life with Dean's great great teachin's in mind & nothin' helps me stay more Dino-focused than a cool cool jam like this...& maybe a martini or two! Hahaha!!! Whatever it takes pallies...keep the Dino-spirit flowin'!
Things I learned in a hobo jungle
Were things they never taught me in a class room
Like where to find a handout
While thumbing through Chicago in the afternoon
Hey I'm not bragging or complaining
I'm just talking to myself man to man
This old lentil fat I'm chewing
Didn't take alot of doing
But I take alot of pride in what I am
I guess I grew up a loner
Don't remember ever having any folks around
But I keep thumbing through the phonebooks
And looking for my Daddy's name in every town
And I meet lots of people
But I always end up leaving on the lam
Hey where I've been, where I'm going
I didn't take alot of knowing
But I take alot of pride in what I am
I never travel in a hurry
'Cause I got nobody waiting for me anywhere
Home is anywhere I'm living
If it's sleeping on some vacant beach or city square
Or if I'm working on some road gang
Or just living off the fat of our great land
I never been nobody's idol but at least I have a title
And I take alot of pride in what I am
This old lentil fat I'm chewing
Didn't take alot of doing
I take alot of pride in what I am

This particular tune really suited our Dino, huh?
I never get tired of listening to our Dino sing "I Take a Lot of Pride in What I Am." It's not an egotistical tune for him, and you can hear that particular aspect in the way he sings it.
So so true Ms. AOW. Dean was very humble, I think. Big dif between pride for ego.
