I Wrote A Simple Song

Lyrics

I wrote a simple song
 With simple words and harmony
 Wasn't very long
 Before a star, I was bound to be
 I didn't care if it made the charts
 I only wrote it for you and me
 They think they're so smart now
 They're not as smart as they want to be
 They took my simple song, yes, they did
 They changed the words and the melody
 Made it all sound wrong, yeah
 Now it sounds like a symphony
 Who told them to mess with my
 Oh, now, who gave them the right
 I wanna know now
 That song was personal
 Because I wrote it for you
 It's yours and mine, girl
 I don't care if it
 Makes the charts, y'all, no
 I only wrote it for you and me
 They think they're so smart
 Yes, they do
 They're not as smart
 As they want to be
 Who told them to mess with my
 Oh, now, who gave them the right
 I wanna know
 That song was personal
 Whoa, I wrote it for you
 It's yours and mine
 Yeah, yeah, oh, oh...
