Pretty Good Singer

Well, I can sing alright I guess

My voice isn't fancy or blessed

Yeah, I'm a songwriter And writing is where I belong

And I got some stories to tell

That I won't sing particularly well

So lend me your ears and I won't keep you long

I'm a pretty good singer for writer songs

I got one where he goes to jail

Spends the rest of his life in a cell

And the way that I write it

You'd think that it's happening to you

I got one where she says goodbye

Bitter heartache so sad you could cry

They're lonesome, they're weary

They're here till they're gone

And they're all I can do

I'm a writer of songs

Trying to find me In the few lines that I can make

Lost in the verses of love, death, and doubt

Chasing a feeling

And the feelings they follow me home

Haunted and restless and never alone

Now I can sing just good enough

To record all the songs I make up

I'm a songwriter and writing is all that I know

Yeah, I could sing okay they say

And maybe it's better this way

Straight from the heart you get me right or wrong

I'm a pretty good singer for writer songs

I can sing better if you sing along

I'm a pretty good singer for other songs
