I Got Dreams (song)

"I Got Dreams" is a song co-written and recorded by American country music artist Steve Wariner. It was released in June 1989 as the second single and title track from the album I Got Dreams. The song was the ninth and final number one on the country chart for Steve Wariner as a solo artist. The single went to number one for one week and spent a total of fifteen weeks on the country chart.^[1] Wariner wrote the song with Bill LaBounty.

In his book Country Music: A Biographical Dictionary, Richard Carlin wrote that the song was "jazzy" and said that its inclusion of scat singing made it a "novelty" for country music.^[2]
