"The One Song I Never Could Write" lyrics

The One Song I Never Could Write

Our song
The words never right
Our song
The one song
I never could write

People are dancing
To my music playing
The country is humming my tunes
Awards in the hallway
Lincoln's in the driveway
And old friends
That I never knew

I've got fans who adore me
Bankers who bore me
They hum every song that I write
But I sure know one song
That turned out all wrong
The one song
I never got right

Our song
The words never right
Our song
The one song
I never could write

Now that they're playing
My songs on the jukebox
On TV and on radio
The dollars are flowing
Coming and going
From music and words
That I wrote

I got an unlisted number
Accountant and lawyer
It seems all I do
Turns out right
But I sure know one song
That turned out all wrong
The one song
I never could write

Our song
The words never right
Our song
The one song
I never could write

Our song
The words never right
Our song
The one song
I never could write
