Some I Wrote Composer(s): Harold Reid - Don Reid Performer(s): The Statler Brothers
Some day when it's all over And they come to carry me And you're walkin' slow And wearing black With the rest of the family And the choir stands to sing a song Make sure it's one of mine I had a few more tunes I wanted to write But I ran out of time
Some I wrote for money Some I wrote for fun Some I wrote and threw away And never sang to anyone One I wrote for Mama And a couple still aren't through I've lost track of all the rest But the most I wrote for you
That day when it's all over And you're sittin' all alone They'll call and ask you what you want To have written on my stone Tell them when I was born and died The year and the day And if there's room for somethin' more Here's what you can say
Some he wrote for money Some he wrote for fun Some he wrote and threw away And never sang to anyone One he wrote for his Mama And never finished two or three He lost track of all the rest But the most he wrote for me
Some I wrote for money Some I wrote for fun Some I wrote and threw away And never sang to anyone One I wrote for Mama And a couple still aren't through I've lost track of all the rest But the most I wrote for you
Yeah, I've lost track of all the rest But the most I wrote for you....
