Some I wrote
|
|
|
Someday when it`s all over,
|
And they come to carry me.
|
And you`re walkin` slow and wearin` black
|
With the rest of the family.
|
And the choir stands to sing a song,
|
Make sure it`s one of mine.
|
I had a few more tunes that
|
I wanted to write,
|
But I ran out of time.
|
|
Chorus,
|
|
Some I wrote for money, Some I wrote for fun.
|
Some I wrote and threw away, never sang to any one.
|
One I wrote for mama, and a couple still aren't through.
|
I`ve lost track of all the rest, but the most I wrote for you.
|
|
That day when it`s all over,
|
And you`re settin` all alone.
|
They'll come and ask you what you want.
|
To have written on my stone.
|
Tell`em when I was born and died,
|
The year and the day,
|
And if there`s room for something more
|
Well here`s what you can say.
|
|
Some he wrote for money, Some he wrote for fun.
|
Some he wrote and threw away, never sang to any one.
|
One he wrote for his mama, and never finished two or three
|
He lost track of all the rest, but the most he wrote for me
|
