We are on the roads of Texas for both of these awesome songs. Lyrics :
Like the pine trees linin' the windin' road
I've got a name, I've got a name
Like the singin' bird and the croakin' toad
I've got a name, I've got a name
And I carry it with me like my daddy did
But I'm living the dream that he kept hid
Movin' me down the highway ! rollin' me down the highway !
Movin' ahead so life won't pass me by
Like the north wind whistlin' down the sky
I've got a song, I've got a song
Like the whippoorwill and the baby's cry !
I've got a song, I've got a song
And I carry it with me and I sing it loud
If it gets me nowhere, I'll go there proud
Movin' me down the highway ! rollin' me down the highway !
Movin' ahead so life won't pass me by
And I'm gonna go there free
Like the fool I am and I'll always be
I've got a dream, I've got a dream
They can change their minds but they can't change me
I've got a dream, I've got a dream
Oh, I know I could share it if you want me to
If you're goin' my way, I'll go with you
Movin' me down the highway ! rollin' me down the highway !
Movin' ahead so life won't pass me by
Movin' me down the highway ! rollin' me down the highway !
Movin' ahead so life won't pass me by

"I Got a Name" is the fifth and final studio album (and first posthumous release) by American singer-songwriter Jim Croce, released on December 1, 1973. It features the ballad "I'll Have to Say I Love You in a Song", which reached number 9 in the US singles chart, and the ballad "Salon and Saloon", the last song Croce recorded in his lifetime. The song was written by his guitarist Maury Muehleisen and was included on the album as a gift to the writer. The song is noted for its sparse piano only vocal backing. This would be Croce's final album recorded during his lifetime, as Croce died in a plane crash the day before the album's title song was released, leaving wife Ingrid Croce and son Adrian J. Croce. The title track, the theme from the film The Last American Hero, was another posthumous hit for Croce, reaching number 10 in the US singles chart.

Bonus song is here ;I'll Have To Say I Love You in a Song Lyrics :
Well, I know it's kind of late
I hope I didn't wake you
But what I got to say can't wait
I know you'd understand
cause Ev'ry time I tried to tell you
The words just came out wrong
So I'll have to say I love you in a song
Yeah, I know it's kind of strange
But ev'ry time I'm near you
I just run out of things to say
I know you'd understand
& Ev'ry time I tried to tell you
The words just came out wrong
So I'll have to say I love you in a song
Ev'ry time the time was right
All the words just came out wrong
So I'll have to say I love you in a song
Well, I know it's kind of late
I hope I didn't wake you
But what I got to say can't wait
I know you'd understand
cause Ev'ry time I tried to tell you
The words just came out wrong
So I'll have to say I love you in a song
