Songwriter’s Blues Lyrics – Martin Mull
Singer: Martin Mull
Title: Songwriter’s Blues
I gotta be stoned enough to write it
I gotta stay straight enough to play
I gotta be drunk enough to sing
And still have sober things to say
I got to be hip enough to be heavy
I got to be dumb enough to clown
I gotta be up enough to bring it up sometimes
And down enough to bring it down
Lord, it used to be so easy just to write a simple song
Now the only thing that’s easy, is it’s so easy to go wrong
I got those old songwriter blues
From my songwritin’ head down to my songwritin’ shoes
I’m just gettin’ by on cigarettes and booze
I just can’t lose those old songwritin’ blues
I got to be managed, bookеd, and published
And still pretend I got somе soul
When the ladies, they all want waltzes
And the kids, they need that rock and roll
I gotta be nuts to try to please ‘em
Guess I am just a little bit
But I’m stuck on rhymin’ for the simple reason
I just might get a hit
Oh, it used to be so easy just to write that simple song
Now the only thing that’s easy, is it’s seems easy to go wrong
I got those old songwriter blues
From my songwritin’ head down to my songwritin’ shoes
I’m just gettin’ by on cigarettes and booze
Just can’t lose those old songwriter blues
