Think I'll Write A Song

Helen Reddy


Smoggy day in L.A.
Think I’ll write a song
Know exactly what to say
Shouldn’t take too long
First I’d better clear my head
Feed the baby, make the bed
Should eat breakfast but instead
Think I’ll write a song

Did I hear the doorbell
Just as I sat down
Time to say a farewell
Someone’s leaving town
God be in your heart, my friend
Glad to see you’re on the mend
Hate to bring this to an end but
Thought I’d write a song

La la la la la
The melody keeps running through my head
La la la la
The kind of song you sing alone

Foggy day in L.A.
Think I’ll write a song
Know exactly what to say
Shouldn’t take too long
Now I hear the telephone
Guess another morning’s blown
Seems my time is not my own
Tried to write a song
Thought I’d write a song
