I've been alive forever,
And I wrote the very first song
I put the words and the melodies together,
I am music, and I write the songs

I write the songs that make the whole world sing
I write the songs of love and special things
I write the songs that make the young girls cry
I write the songs, I write the songs

Oh my music makes you dance
And gives your spirit to take a chance,
And I wrote some rock 'n roll so you can move
Music fills your heart,
Well, that's a real fine place to start
It's from me, it's for you,
It's from you, it's from me,
It's a world wide symphony

I write the songs that make the whole world sing
I write the songs of love and special things
I write the songs that make the young girls cry
I write the songs, I write the songs

I write the songs that make the whole world sing
I write the songs of love and special things
I write the songs that make the young girls cry
I write the songs, I write the songs

I am music, and I write the songs
