Lyrics

Verse 1 (w. nelson):
C/g f c/g
You call us heathens with zero respect for the law
G
We are only songwriters just writing our songs and that's all
C/g f c/g
We write what we live and we live what we write is that wrong

If you think it is mr. music executive
G c/g
Why don't you write your own songs

Chorus (w. nelson):
C/g g c/g
And don't listen to mine,they might run you crazy
G
They might make you dwell on your feelings a moment too long
F c/g
We're making you rich and you're already lazy
G c/g
So just lay on your ass and get richer or write your own songs

Verse 2 (w. jennings):
C/g f c/g
Mr. purified country don't you know what the whole things about
G
Is your head up your ass so far that you can't pull it out
C/g f c/g
The world's getting smaller and everyone in it belongs

And if you can't see that mr. purified country
G c/g
Why don't you just write your own songs

Chorus
G c/g
So just lay on your ass and get richer or write your own songs

(W. jennings:) and kiss ours!
