I don't know much but I know one thing.
These words came to me as I started to sing
I opened my mouth the words came out
This song wrote itself
I swear as I'm strumming down these chords
This aint something I just simply stole
From a song I heard before
Must be intervention from below
If you help me out with a
Whoa whoa whoa
I might get away with a
Hey hey hey
Despite what you've been told
Or what you think that you know
Despite what you've heard
The truth is what I've always said
This song wrote itself
♪
They say:
" Hey man you won't get far
With borrowed licks on a stolen guitar".
I don't know what you're talking about
This song wrote itself
Don't accuse me cause it came into my head.
It wrote itself and I didn't even help.
I'm not in it for the fame and glory
I swear it's based on a true story
♪
If there's any royalties
You can give it all to me
I sure could need some help
But as I already said
