Sam I Am Lyrics


Well, I tried to be your paper boy
Tried to be your Boy Scout
Tried to be your ice cream manI could not be your soldier
Or even drive your bus
My skills weren't always that obviousYeah, but I hope you understand
I'll do the best I can
I ain't no perfect man but Sam I amI'm a back-talking fighter
A silver bullet biter
I'm a flip flop slider
And a guitar moonlighterI'm your 'Prove it all night'-er
Your holy ghost writer
Pale of shade whiter
I'm your rock 'n' roll driverOh, yeah, oh, yeah
That's all I amYeah, then I, I tried to be your oil man
Tried to be your big boss
Tried to be your broker but you took a lossIt's just a hopeless case
And I ain't no lawyer
I only got a few tricks I can show yaAnd I hope you understand it

I'll do the best I can
I ain't no Superman but Sam I amAnd I'm a feel good doctor
A big bad talker
After midnight walker
Sitting on the bay dockerI'm a sunshine stalker
Ho daddy wave watcher
Heaven's door knocker
Blue, white and red rockerOh, yeah, oh, yeah
That's all I amYeah, uh, listen
You know I've, I tried to be
Everything to you
Yeah, but it would not would not doGot nothing on my resume
But I can rock you
And roll you each and every dayHave mercy on me
I am not sorry
Believe me, it's easy
I'll do my best to beA straight shot shooter
A bad motor scooter
Sunny honeymooner
Your heavy metal croonerMake you wanna holler
Shirt with no collar
Just wish a couple inches taller
White, blue and red rockerOh, yeah, oh, yeah
Uh, I say, yeah, yeah, yeah
That's all I am
That's all I am
Baby, baby, baby, Sam I Am

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Sammy Hagar, From Colton, California, was popular in the early- mid 1980's for fast paced, guitar-driven, hard rock with a masculine, lets-go-party attitude, joined the band Van Halen as lead vocalist after David Lee Roth's departure from the group. (Before joining Van Halen he sang lead vocals in Ronnie Montrose's classic rock band Montrose, and had some single output, notably his release, "I Can't Drive 55".) As much as it was public surprise when Hagar joined the band, so it was when he left. Sammy Hagar now peddles his own line of high-quality "Cabo Wabo" tequila. In the Spring of 2007, Hagar sold his stake in Cabo Wabo tequila to an Italian beverage company for a reported $80 million.

Hagar, now a sort of modern-day Jimmy Buffett, has earned his place in rock n roll history as one of hard rock's premier front men who not only has an ample, strong, belting vocal range with soulful melody and tone, but his duality as a formidable lead guitarist and guitar-riff-monger puts him in a league shared with few others in terms of versatility and overall right to rock.

He now tours with Mike Anthony, former bassist for Van Halen.

He resides with his family in Mill Valley, CA.

Hagar is currently in a band called "Chickenfoot" with Michael Anthony, Red Hot Chili Peppers' drummer Chad Smith and guitarist Joe Satriani. Their self titled debut album was released to critical acclaim

Sammy Hagar is also known as the Red Rocker, due to the fact he almost always wears red shirts or plays a red guitar, or more likely that he has red hair?

Seems that Chickenfoot is on a hiatus as Joe Satriani has gone back to solo and CF has yet to follow up with a new LP.
