Ashlyn - Sing Your Own Song

I was a beatnik
But you had a paycheck
Sometimes you gotta be your own soul
You wanted Billie and Harry
I wanted Carole and Gerry
Sometimes you gotta have a little more soul

'Cause sometimes the grass ain't greener
And sometimes people get meaner
Sometimes you gotta sing your own song

They love to tell you to lose it
But Mama Cass said make your own kind of music
Sometimes you gotta sing your own dang song

I had an ear
You had your career
Somehow you always got creative control
Y'all sang your Lennon Stella
But John Lennon baby, he's my fella
And sometimes you just gotta lost control, yeah

And sometimes the grass ain't greener
And sometimes people get meaner
Sometimes you gotta sing your own song

They love to tell you to lose it
But Mama Cass said make your own kind of music
Sometimes you gotta sing your own dang song

They got their own way of tricking
Nitpicking my picking
But sometimes you just gotta leave it alone, yeah
Gone from Nashville to Fort Worth
Just looking for my worth
But it don't matter where I find it just as long as I'm alone

'Cause sometimes the grass ain't greener
And sometimes people get meaner
Sometimes you gotta sing your own song

They love to tell you to lose it
But Mama Cass said make your own kind of music
Sometimes you gotta sing your own
Sometimes even when you're alone
Sometimes you gotta sing your own dang song

Woah, woah, woah
