Write Me a Song Lyrics


Advisory - the following lyrics contain explicit language:
Kelly is raising her son
His dad left just after the birth
Now she's living on child support checks
I guess that's all that man was worthShe said, "I just need a man who will love me
But they all just want one night of sin"
I know our life could be better
I just don't know where I should beginShe said write me a song
One that makes all the girls cry
And the old women swoon at the sound of my tune
And the hearts of the lonely will fly, yeah, they'll flyBeth she sings straight from her heart

She's hidden her tracks very well
But these days she's falling apart
And it makes me feel just like hellShe says, "Boy, you can't imagine my life
The death and the drugs and the pain
And though I keep running
I just can't seem to break from these chains"She said, "Write me a song
Fill it all up with words
Like brilliant and heavenly make it sound just like me
Just like the first time I love you was heardAnd now write me a song
One that makes all the girls cry
And the old women swoon at the sound of my tune
And the hearts of the lonely will flyWe're all feeding our lonely
Like it might go away
The doors of heaven swing wide
If we just find the right words to sayShe said, "Write me a song
Fill it all up with words
Like brilliant and heavenly make it sound just like me
Just like the first time I love you was heardAnd now write me a song
One that makes all the girls cry
And the old women swoon at the sound of my tune
And the hearts of the lonely will fly, yeah, flyShe said write me a song
(Write me a song)
She said write me a song
(Write me a song)
She said write me a song
(Write me a song)
She said write me a song
(Write me a song)

Edwin McCain (born January 20, 1970 in Greenville, South Carolina) is an alternative and indie rock guitar player. While his albums are released under his name, he does have a permanent band, referred to as the Edwin McCain Band. Members of the band as of 2007 include Larry Chaney, lead guitar; Pete Riley, rhythm guitar and background vocals; Craig Shields, saxophone and keyboards; Manny Yames, bass guitar; and Peter Alexander, drums.

After signing a contract with the Atlantic Records label Lava Records in 1994, his first major-label album, Honor Among Thieves, was issued in 1995. His second album, Misguided Roses, spawned I'll Be, a major single in 1998. Two more albums (Messenger and Far From Over) followed, but at the end of 2001, he split from Lava. In 2003 he released a collection of acoustic versions of songs both old and new called The Austin Sessions via ATC Records, a Nashville-based independent record label (at which McCain was the first artist signed following its creation in 2001). Mid-2004 saw the arrival of his first studio album in three years, entitled Scream & Whisper, which was released on another indie label, DRT Entertainment.

He has released two DVDs to date. The first was through ATC records in late 2002, called Mile Marker: Songs and Stories from the Acoustic Highway, and it consisted of interviews, live performances, and other material. The other was in late 2004, Tinsel & Tap Shoes. It was his first live concert DVD, recorded at The House of Blues in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.

A new CD was released in April, 2006 titled, Lost In America. Edwin recently signed a contract with Vanguard Records. This album (#8) is said to be a true "rock 'n roll" collection.
