I Wrote A Simple Song

I wrote a simple song

With simple words and harmony

Wasn't very long

Before a star, I was bound to be

I didn't care if it made the charts

I only wrote it for you and me

They think they're so smart now

They're not as smart as they want to be

They took my simple song, yes, they did

They changed the words and the melody

Made it all sound wrong, yeah

Now it sounds like a symphony

Who told them to mess with my

Oh, now, who gave them the right

I wanna know now

That song was personal

Because I wrote it for you

It's yours and mine, girl

I don't care if it

Makes the charts, y'all, no

I only wrote it for you and me

They think they're so smart

Yes, they do

They're not as smart

As they want to be

Who told them to mess with my

Oh, now, who gave them the right

I wanna know

That song was personal

Whoa, I wrote it for you

It's yours and mine

Yeah, yeah, oh, oh
