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

this song wrote itself
