Ive written songs about love,
Songs about war
Beat up cars and old screen doors
Youth and truth
Lies and money
Some of em are sad and others are funny
And ive Sang about sunshine sang about rain
Lookin out the window of a big jet plane
Songs about home and this road im on
And songs just to find the strength to carry on
I reckon ive written about a million songs so far
Dirty clubs and motel rooms
Tryin to be a big rock star
But all they wanna hear is sittin at a bar
Ya know that bartender song
The one about crashin that car
So I sing it every night
But I save it for last
And everybody sings along
Might even sign me an autograph
Well ive strained my brain and tried to search
For great ideas that just wont work
Complex metaphors double entendre
Tried to be more than a one hit wonder
Scheming on a rhyme rackin' my melon
How long I been doin' this aint no tellin'
Workin' like the devil to be Avant-garde
Well hell maybe I just try to hard
I reckon ive written about a million songs so far
Dirty clubs and motel rooms
Tryin' to be a big rock star
But all they wanna hear is sittin' at a bar
Ya know that bartender song
The one about crashin' that car
So I sing it every night
But I save it for last
And everybody sings along
Might even sign me an autograph
I'm not complainin' not at all I'm just sayin'
If I could find a way to write a million more like that one
Then maybe that drunk guy with all his sloppy friends
You could find at all our shows wouldn't be yelling
Play that trailer park song when we're just two songs in
But who knows
All they wanna hear is sittin' at a bar
Ya know that bartender song
The one about crashin' that car
So I sing it every night
But I save it for last
And everybody sings along
Might even sign me an autograph
