Sweet Music Man

(album: One Of A Kind - 1977)

Sing a song sweet music man
Cause I won't be there to hold your hand like I used to
I'm through with you
You're a beautiful singer and a powerful man
But you surround yourself with people who demand so little of you

You touched my soul with your beautiful songs
You even had me singing along right with you
You said I need you
Then you changed the words and added harmony
You sang the song you had written for me to someone new

Nobody sings the love songs quite like you do
Nobody else can make me sing along
Nobody else can make me feel things are right
But I know they're wrong
Nobody sings a love song quite like you

Sing your songs sweet music man
You travel the world with a six piece band
That does for you what you ask 'em to
You try to stay young but the songs are sung
To so many people who've all begun to came back on you

Sing your song sad music man
You're making your living doing one night stands
They're through with you they don't need you
You're still a beautiful singer but a broken man
But you'll keep on looking for one last fan to sing to

But nobody sings the love songs quite like you do
Nobody else can make me sing along
Nobody else can make me feel things are right
But I know they're wrong
Nobody sings a love song quite like you

Sing your song sweet music man
Sing your song sweet music man uh huh
