What I Want
Blue Dogs Lyrics

I want my own reputation
I desire to have my own unique identity that distinguishes me from others

I can't believe that I don't
I am surprised that I have not been able to establish a reputation for myself

I can't stand this ugly situation
I dislike the current state of affairs and find it unpleasant

I just want what I want
I simply desire what I desire without any justification or explanation

I want to be just like my daddy
I aspire to emulate my father in every way possible

Then I could drive anything
If I were like my father, I would have the ability to operate any vehicle

I could take my own self fishin'
I would be able to go fishing all by myself, without the need for anyone else's help

I want my own reputation
I still desire to have my own unique identity that sets me apart from others

I just want to be where everybody knows my name
I yearn to be a part of a social circle where I am known and recognized by everyone

I got to find a girl just like my mama
I need to locate a woman who has the same admirable qualities that my mother possesses

Then I won't never burn the toast
If I find a partner who is like my mother, I will never make any mistakes in the kitchen

When I find her I'll introduce her to my family
Once I discover someone who meets my standards, I will make sure to present her to my loved ones

We'll see who they 'ppreciate the most
My desire is to find out who my family members like the most

I just wanna be where everyone knows my name
Once again, I yearn to be a part of a community where everyone is familiar with me

I can't understand my little brother
I cannot comprehend my sibling's behavior and motives

He don't like to see my magazines
He refuses to look at the types of periodicals that I prefer

He always cries for mama when we wrestle
Whenever we engage in physical activities together, he frequently beseeches our mother for assistance

He's been more like a sister to me
I perceive my younger brother to be feminine and effeminate in his characteristics and behavior

I don't like my own reputation
My current image and reputation is displeasing to me

If you ask I'm gonna tell you the same
If someone inquires about my current standing, I will respond with a negative outlook

I got to change this bad situation
I understand that I need to take action in order to improve my circumstances

I want to be where everybody knows my name
Ultimately, my hope is to be embedded within a social circle where I am recognized by everyone
