Lyrics:

Some I Wrote



That day when it`s all over,

And they come to carry me.

And you`re wearin` black and walkin` slow

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.

Some I wrote for mama a couple of them 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.

And they come to ask what you want.

Written on my stone.

Tell`em when I was born and died,

The year and the day,

If there`s room for something else,

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.

Some he wrote for mama I`ve forgotten two or three

I`ve lost track of all the rest, but the most he wrote for me
