Artist/Band: Tom T. Hall
Lyrics for Song: Singer's Song
Lyrics for Album: I Wrote a Song About It [Mercury] [1975]



(Tom T. Hall)



Now that I know what I know

Why did the learning come so slow

There are deeds that I have done

There in the songs I've sung.



And no building stands

With my name on the side

I've left no trails

For little kids to ride.



God had his wish and I had mine

He gave me words and I made them rhyme

If there's good in what I bring

It's in the songs I sing.



--- Instrumental ---



So let me sing and go on by

Build your castles to the sky

I make mine with words and tones

And so I work alone.



And no building stands

With my name on the side

I've left no trails

For little kids to ride...
