Waylon Jennings – Write Your Own Songs lyrics
Verse 1 (W. Nelson):
C/G F C/G
You call us heathens with zero respect for the law
G
We are only songwriters just writing our songs and that's all
C/G F C/G
We write what we live and we live what we write is that wrong
If you think it is Mr. Music Executive
G C/G
Why don't you write your own songs
Chorus (W. Nelson):
C/G G C/G
And don't listen to mine, they might run you crazy
G
They might make you dwell on your feelings a moment too long
F C/G
We're making you rich and you're already lazy
G C/G
So just lay on your ass and get richer or write your own songs
Verse 2 (W. Jennings):
C/G F C/G
Mr. Purified Country don't you know what the whole things about
G
Is your head up your ass so far that you can't pull it out
C/G F C/G
The world's getting smaller and everyone in it belongs
And if you can't see that Mr. Purified Country
G C/G
Why don't you just write your own songs
Chorus.
G C/G
So just lay on your ass and get richer or write your own songs
(W. Jennings:) And kiss ours!

    loveyyyyyy 2015-09-05 20:03:05
    This is my fight song. To be happy all the time, no matter how big the waves are. No matter how big the storm is. I will stay strong. I am tired of what people say and their expectations. I just want to live my life the way I want it. People always saying how I need to change and be different. I am always the outcast and people don't understand me. I am just tired of living like this. I am surrounded by all this judgemental people and they always want me to be one of them and all I want to do is just be the best I can and be happy with it. Because someone is different it doesn't mean there bad or they don't fit it just mean their human and so are you. Don't be judgemental and there is always tear under those smile. Just be happy with who you are and keep doing you.
