Lyrics

Married to the road, there's no other way to say it
Baby found out quite early in the game
That I belong to my songs, so she chose not to play it
Now I walk down the street and I hear them call my name
Tunesmith, tunesmith, sing me a song
Give me your laughter, give me your tears
Tunesmith, tunesmith, sing me a song
But who sings a song for the tunesmith?
Who sings a song for the tunesmith?
She could have changed my mind if anyone could do it
That's why I know I'll always be this way
And now that I've got fame, I find there's nothing to it
I remember how I left her when I hear the people say
Tunesmith, tunesmith, sing me a song
Give me your laughter, give me your tears
Tunesmith, tunesmith, sing me a song
But who sings a song for the tunesmith?
Who sings a song for the tunesmith?
This hotel room is all I own
Now that all my friends are gone
All alone at the break of day
I still can hear them say
(Tunesmith, tunesmith, sing me a song)
Give me your laughter, give me your tears
(Tunesmith, tunesmith, sing me a song)
But who sings a song for the tunesmith?
Tell me who sings a song for the tunesmith?
Tunesmith, tunesmith, sing me a song
Give me your laughter, give me your tears
Tunesmith, tunesmith, sing me a song
But who sings a song for the tunesmith?
Yeah, who sings a song for the tunesmith?
