"I Wrote A Simple Song" lyrics

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, no
I only wrote it for you and me
They think they're so smart, yeah
They're not as smart as they want to be

They took my simple song, yeah
They changed the words and the melody
Made it all sound wrong, yeah
And now it sounds like a symphony

Who told them to mess with my
Who gave them the right, I wanna know, yeah
That song was personal
Because I wrote it for you
It's yours and mine, girl

Who told them to mess with my
Who gave them the right, I wanna know, yeah
That song was personal
'Cause I wrote it for you
It's yours and mine, girl
