Wrote a Song For Everyone - Creedence Clearwater Revival

Met myself a-coming, county welfare line.

I was feeling strung out, hung out on the line.

Saw myself a-going down to war in June.

All I want, all I want is to write myself a tune.

Wrote a song for everyone

Wrote a song for truth.

Wrote a song for everyone

When I couldn't even talk to you.

Got myself arrested, wound me up in jail.

Richmond about to blow up, communication failed.

If you see the answer, now's the time to say.

All I want, all I want is to get you down to pray.

Wrote a song for everyone

Wrote a song for truth.

Wrote a song for everyone

When I couldn't even talk to you.

Wrote a song for everyone

Wrote a song for truth.

Wrote a song for everyone

When I couldn't even talk to you.

Saw the people standing, thousand years in chains.

Somebody said it's different now, look it's just the same.

Pharaohs spin the message, round and round the truth.

They could have saved a million people, how can I tell you?

Wrote a song for everyone

Wrote a song for truth.

Wrote a song for everyone

When I couldn't even talk to you.

Wrote a song for everyone

Wrote a song for truth.

Wrote a song for everyone

When I couldn't even talk to you.

Wrote a song for everyone

Wrote a song for truth.

Wrote a song for everyone

When I couldn't even talk to you.
