The One Song I Never Could Write

(album: Womanhood - 1978)

Our song, the words never rhyme
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, Lincolns' in the driveway
And old friend 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 rhyme
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've got an unlisted number, accountant and lawyer
It seems all I do turns out right
But I sure know one song turned out all wrong
The one song I never could write

Our song, the words never rhyme
Our song, the one song I never could write

Our song, the words never rhyme
Our song, the one song I never could write
