My Song

My life is a stage, music's my trade
I play the crowd's request
The songs they like the best in a style

But once in a while when no one's around
I get my guitar down and play it from the heart
And I don't play no part, it's real, it's just what I feel

Let this be a song for me
Yours is next but this song's mine
Oh, this song's mine
Yours is next but this song's mine

This won't take long, it's just a song
Just a player's mood, it might not mean much to you
But you're kind for takin' the time

So, when I'm done, I'll play you one
Anything you choose but right now I'd rather do my own
So, don't sing along

Let this be a song for me
Yours is next but this song's mine
Oh, this one's mine, play it for you some other time
Yours is next but this song is mine
