Write me a song about singin'

Write me a song about free

Do a little tune about lovin' and a-livin'

Do it just for me



[chorus]

But please don't make it a sad song

I don't wanna sing the blues

For god's sakes make it a glad song

I got no time to lose



Now, write me a song about rivers

Write me a song about trees

Do a little tune about climbin' the mountain

Play it in the key of me



[chorus]

But please don't make it a sad song

I don't wanna sing the blues

For god's sakes make it a glad song

I got no time to lose



Lay a little get-down rhythm

Sprinkle in a dash a' soul

Mix it with a little bit a' breakdown country

Plus a lot a' rock an' roll



[chorus]

But please don't make it a sad song

I don't wanna sing the blues

For god's sakes make it a glad song

I got no time to lose



Well, write me a song about summer

Write me a song about sun

Do a little tune about good times

Do it just for fun



[chorus]

But please don't make it a sad song

I don't wanna sing the blues

For god's sakes make it a glad song

I got no time to lose
