Hatfield & Apartment 45 - My Lyrics Ain't No Shakespeare Lyrics

I ain't got much talent
But a lot of heart
I hope that's a start

My guitar playing sucks
I break a lot of strings
Among other things

I keep my songs quite simple
Not the toughest chords
Just three or four

My lyrics ain't no Shakespeare
Guess they'll have to do
To get through to you

I wanna hit the road and play a thousand shows
Before I hit the floor
Before I hit the floor

Drive from town to town and when the car breaks down
I guess we'll busk around
We'll just busk around

I'd be happy to sing you a song
I'd be honoured if you'd sing along
Sing along

I wanna roam the lands, I wanna meet the bands
I wanna shake some hands
I wanna shake some hands

I wanna write a line about a moment in time
That'll stick in your mind
That'll stick in your mind

I'd be happy to sing you a song
I'd be honoured if you'd sing along
Sing along

I want the bars, I want the scars
The sweaty clubs, strings full of blood

I want the bus, I want the fuss
I want the pain, I want the gain
I want the crowd, I want it loud
I want the sound and another round

I wanna write a fine tattoo-able line
I wanna write a line with a clever rhyme
I wanna write a song about the rights and wrongs
I wanna write a song for you to sing along

I wanna write a song for you to sing along
Come on and sing along
