Lyrics to Why I Am by Dave Matthews Band
I grew from monkey into man
Then I crushed 15 million with a wave of my hand
I grew drunk on water turned into wine
'Til I was slave and master at the same damn time
But it's why I am
It's why I am
Why I am still here dancing with the GrooGrux King
Out of my head and into the room, hello
A king of men, it makes no sense
Oh bow to the priest while I worship the wench
but it's why I am always the one who'd make you smile
Why I am
I'm still a snake in the woodpile
It's why I am still here dancing with the GrooGrux King
Out of my head and into the room
So when my ghost takes me from you
You can remember the fool that I am
Don't cry baby, don't cry
The lose and the win of the world
Wrong and right, us and them of the world
It's the you and the me of the world
But only one way out of the world
It's the lose and the win of the world
Wrong and right, us and them of the world
It's the you and the me of the world
Only one way out of the world
It's why I am unlikely to agree
Why I am, climbing out of my monkey tree
Why I am still here dancing with the GrooGrux King
We'll be drinking Big Whiskey while we dance and sing
and where my story ends, it's gonna end with him
Heaven or hell, I'm going down with the GrooGrux King
Why I am the apple of your pretty eye
Why I am the snake in the woodpile
it's why I am still here dancing with the GrooGrux King
Out of my head and into the room
So when my ghost takes me from you
You can remember the fool that I am
Don't cry baby, don't cry
