(J. Fogerty)
|
Met myself a comin' county welfare line.
|
I was feelin' strung out, Hung out on the line.
|
Saw myself a goin', down to war in June.
|
All I want, All I want is to write myself a tune.
|
Chorus:
|
Wrote a song for ev'ryone,
|
Wrote a song for truth.
|
Wrote a song for ev'ryone
|
And I couldn't even talk to you.
|
|
Got myself arrested, Wound me up in jail.
|
Richmond 'bout to blow up, communication failed.
|
If you see the answer, now's the time to say.
|
All I want, All I want is to get you down to pray.
|
|
Chorus

Chorus
|
|
Saw the people standin' thousand years in chains.
|
Somebody said it's diff'rent now, look, it's just the same.
|
Pharoahs spin the message, round and round the truth.
|
They could have saved a million people, How can I tell you?
