Harry Chapin - Song Man Lyrics
Leon wrote a song for his special girl
and Elton and bernie did too!
But you've been mine for such a long time
baby
it's my turn to write one for you
that this poor boy could do.
You see I don't know what to tell you babe
I can't say thanks a lot
for I know I really owe you
for almost everything I got.
You were with me in the good times
and when things were going bad
you were with me when your love
was the only thing I had.
I have been a song man
coming up with some melodies
trying to find some words that rhyme.
And while I have been singing
you've been there to see me through
and so I think it's long past time
that I wrote this song for you.
I was going to keep it simple
and not make it too long
but I had hoped to make it beautiful
for after all it is your song.
You know how I love my music
it is my life and my livelihood
but of all that's happened to me babe
you are everything that's good.

Love is songs
Great album. Brings me back to February of 1975 while working for UPS. Someone cranked up this album while working and I was hooked on Harry Chapin and his inspirational songs!!!
