Текст песни: Trying To Do Something To Get Your Attention + перевод

Maybe I should give you some of the royalties to this song

‘cause you sure did inspire me to write

Maybe I should put your name in the lyrics somewhere

‘cause you sure did cause me to write it

You know, as much of a lift

As love songs are

They sure are hard to write

I’m tryin' to do something —

— to get your attention

Maybe I should put your picture on the front of this song

‘Cause you sure did cause me to write it

Or tell them how I met you in the coda of the song

‘Cause you sure did cause me to write it

You know, as much of a lift

As love songs are

They sure are hard to write

I’m tryin' to do something —

Just stand up here and hold my overcoat like this and…

— To get your attention

And I tried real hard not to make this song sound like some other song that I

might have

Written before

And if I did, that’s because it’s my style and style is based on

Limitations

I tried real hard not to make this song sound like some other song some other

singer-songwriter might have

Written before

And If I did, that’s ‘cause it’s music

And music’s based on

Repetition

Now maybe if you learn the words to this —

You’re very own song

A song that you caused to be written —

You sing it out for somebody else that you love

‘Cause you sure did cause it to be written

You know, as much of a lift

As love songs are

They sure are hard to write

I’m tryin' to do something —

— to get your attention
