I Wrote A Simple Song Lyrics

I Wrote A Simple Song - Billy Preston

Written by:Billy Preston/Joe Greene

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
