| I made too many boasts along the way
|
| And its a cold, long lonely day
|
| Let me share your fire and I’ll sing a song for you
|
| Funny, cause I called it «Happy Song»
|
| And if you won’t, I’ll move on
|
| The songwriter can make you laugh or cry
|
| He’s pumping gas at night just to survive
|
| And all he asks is for you (is) to sing his songs
|
| And put his name in lights where it belongs
|
| I used to have a family
|
| A wife and three small kids
|
| I couldn’t give them anything they needed
|
| I guess I’m a long way from being a man
|
| Hey there Mr. Gershwin
|
| Gone at thirty eight
|
| Gave so much, and yet so much to give
|
| And I thank you for the Rhapsody in Blue
|
| And I must confess sometimes I think of you
|
| The songwriter can make you laugh of cry
|
| He’s pumping gas a night just to survive
|
| And all he asks is for you to sing his song
|
| And put his name in lights where it belongs
|
| They won’t play my music so I’m never comin' back
|
| I made too many boasts along the way
|
| The songwriter can make you laugh or cry
|
| The songwriter can make you laugh or cry
|
| The songwriter can make you laugh or cry
|
| The songwriter can make you laugh or cry
|
| The songwriter can make you laugh or cry |
